I don't know that much about CSS, and I would like to know more, a lot more, so I can use the information to better my site layout. I know a lot of you here know about CSS, so I would appreciate if someone explained it.

Thanks :)

I don't know if the W3 specs are the best place to start. You might want to get a book or check out w3schools.com. The W3 specs are great once you have a basic understanding, but will probably confuse you if you start there. You will get a lot of information about the inner workings of CSS from reading the specs, but I suggest waiting until you have a grasp of CSS basics before reading it. It should make more sense at that point.

Viewing source code is good, but it's no way to learn ALL about the language. The best you can do from viewing it is learn the syntax.

I learn best when I create my first couple of programs in a language.

CSS is great resource to anyone doing websites. I agree, looking at source is no way to learn but it does help a lot. I've often reviewed others code to learn how to do my own.
