I always though the Master was the Grasshopper...? I'll have to check on goggle now...Lol

I found this on Wilkapedia so you where right.

Quote:
"Grasshopper" is a term currently used in jest referencing a person who has much to learn. Its use originated from the television show 'Kong Fo' (1972-1975). Caine, the young student, portrayed by Radamas Pera, is receiving instruction from his Master Po (portrayed by Keye Luck) who nicknames his student "Grasshopper" as a term of endearment.

The best way to learn is practice practice practice and continue to view other peoples coding and maybe mess with there code. Also reading desired books is a must. These guys will list books that will help you on your way to learning code.

I have the for dummies collection which isn't bad for beginners and i also have CSS Anthology from SitePoint which is the latest edition 101 tips, tricks and hacks. Quite a good book. I would also suggest learning a style and sticking with your style that suits you best. Name your CSS how YOU want so you will understand it. Theres lots of tips out there but i recommend that you read as much as possible and like i said before keep practising and you'll get there...
