CSS:TDG will be entering a second print run soon, thanks to strong sales.  It’s had an Amazon.com sales ranking as high as 113, and there are rumors that it went higher when we weren’t looking.  On a related note, the recently published Amazon.com editorial review of CSS:TDG is very kind indeed.  Here are a few quotes:  “…enthusiasm for [CSS] spills out of the pages, making a strong case for even the most skeptical reader to give CSS a whirl and count on its future… attention to both detail and architecture helps readers build a well-rounded knowledge of CSS…  This fine guide delivers on its promise as an indispensable tool for CSS coders.”

Eric says: Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide has been published and is available.  I have held a copy in my hands (I got two last night via Federal Express); somehow I expected it to be bigger.  I suppose that’s probably an effect of the book’s psychological significance.  Preorders, as of the end of April, totaled 6,307.  …wow.

Kat is back in Cleveland!  Eric could be happier, maybe, but he isn’t really sure how.  Other good things happening: orders for CSS:TDG have already passed 5,200 copies, and the book won’t be available until the beginning of May.  Looks like we might have a winner on our hands, folks…

Well, the fish is out of the net now!  O’Reilly & Associates has officially announced the upcoming publication of Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide.  There are also listings at Borders, Barnes & Noble, Fatbrain.com, and Amazon.com; the Amazon.com sales ranking as of today is really funny: 729,716.  That’s up from its earlier ranking of 729,769!
