Are you at the point in working with CSS where you know how to poke at a style to change some colours or fonts, but anything beyond that is guesswork?

You know, where you want that thing over there, so you try display: block and float: left and when that doesn't work you get out the position: absolute?

If so, you might enjoy a quick and fun tutorial that will show the basics of layout.

Learn CSS Layout is a modern, up to date set of quick lessons demonstrated right on the page with code and examples that show you how things work in a browser.

The site is done up in bright, fun colours, painlessly exposes you to a bit of HTML5 and will get you started with moving things around.

I also like that the more info links are to serious, grown-up sites with guaranteed quality information (so no old forum posts or W3Schools)
