This webinar continues from a previous webinar, Replacing FrontPage Link Bars in Expression Web. Corrie Haffly demonstrates the many ways that you can use CSS to format navigation links, from basic rectangular buttons to faux "push buttons" to using a combination of images and CSS for a graphical button effect.

Non-FrontPage and non-Expression Web users will find this topic engaging and applicable to future web sites, as Corrie covers the CSS how-to's for formatting navigation links.
