Book: CSS in Depth, Second Edition by Keith J. Grant

I can’t seem to find the answer from anyone regarding CSS in Depth (2nd edition) by Keith J. Grant, but does this book cover clamp(), minmax(), calc(), and other functions? While I do have CSS Master (3rd edition) by Tiffany B. Brown, it seems to be missing some meat about these functions.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you!

They garble it, but a quick search of the publisher looks like at least clamp is covered in chapter 2

“garble it”. Interesting description. :grin:

Yes, the 2nd edition covers those functions with good examples—especially clamp() and calc(). It’s a solid read if you’re diving deeper into modern responsive CSS.

Only way to describe it…their preview garbles part way through each chapter.

Agreed. I guess I’ll take my chances and order the book to see. Thank you.

I have to say manning are pretty good. If you order a paperback you get the ebook free.

Amusing obfuscation, but… probably breakable with given word replacements and context clues…

13 letter word starting a paragraph followed by a comma and then a number… cant be many of those.

That said, if you scroll down a little more, the next subsection (whose header is not obfuscated) is titled " Improving things with the clamp() function" and then goes on for 4 paragraphs. So I assume it makes a decent showing of explanation of the function.
