Bulletproof Web Design, 2nd edition

Posted by Vanessa on Thursday, August 9, 2007

Dan Cederholm reports that the second edition of his book, Bulletproof Web Design, is out. To quote:

This isn’t a giant update nor a new book entirely. Rather, it brings the examples in line with Internet Explorer 7 (which wasn’t released when the first ed. was published) and adds several more examples based on ems (which were sorely lacking from the original book). There are of course errata fixes and nips and tucks throughout as well, and about 30 additional pages were added in total. All in all, I’m happy to have the book be all the more solid and relevant.

I’d like to see what he says about ems because I use that for font sizes, mostly to enable users of previous versions of Internet Explorer to resize text if they needed to. However, on some occasions I’ve received comments at work that the font size on my websites is too ridiculously large. Usually that’s because their font size settings have been set to ‘large’ or ‘larger’ and they’ve forgotten about it.
