5th bulleted item from top, second line "<blockquote>" |
Here the <blockquote> breaks because it does not fit in the line adding an extra dash "-" in the middle of the tag "<block-quote>"... eventhough i'm not a novice user it sent me to an HTML tag reference page to confirm. :p
Note from the Author or Editor:
p 23, 5th bulleted item, <blockquote> should not be hyphenated |

Workaround Workshop, 4th Paragraph |
Instructions for accessing Firefox's cache are inaccurate. They say to go through the "Privacy" button to
access the "Cache" tab and set disk space to zero.
It s/b (at least on my Mac, running Mozilla/5.0 Firefox/2.0.0.6) advising in Preferences to click on the
"Advanced" button and under the "Network" tab to access the box to set the cache to "0".

Second to last paragraph, #1 bullet item |
The paragraph reads "1. Enter (Return) to your text editor and the inheritance.html file."
It should read "1. Return to your text editor and the inheritance.html file."
The statement errantly referred to the Windows/Mac keyboard buttons rather than the action of going back to the page in the text editor.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Paragraph should read "1. Return to your text editor and the inheritance.html file." |

1st bullet point under "background-repeat" heading |
It says "Repeat-x tiles the image top

This is backwards. Repeat x tiles from left to right, repeat-y tiles from top to bottom.

second paragraph |
The URL given for the CSS Cheat Sheet has now changed, due to legal action from Jack Daniel's.
The URL for the page containing the CSS cheat sheet is now
http://www.addedbytes.com/cheat-sheets/css-cheat-sheet/
Note: the author has requested that people do _not_ link directly to the PDF file, so that the terms of use can be seen. This is a reasonable request I think.
The story behind this URL change is on
http://www.addedbytes.com/blog/what-happened-to-ilovejackdaniels-dot-com/
Note from the Author or Editor:
URL "www.ilovejackdaniels.com/css_cheat_sheet.pdf" has changed to
