Style Master, the acclaimed cascading style sheet editor for the Macintosh just got better.
Bondi Beach, Australia, April, 1999. Western Civilisation announces the release and immediate availability of Style Master 1.2 , an important upgrade to the cascading style sheet editor that makes this new web standard accessible to all web developers.
<http://www.westciv.com/style_master/>
Now webmasters of all levels of expertise can create and edit cascading style sheets that will work every time in targeted browsers, and easily integrate them with their sites. Most importantly, Style Master uses innovative online help to guide users through the pitfalls of style sheets, particularly selectors, and the problem of developing for different browsers that support style sheets only partially.
TUCOWS said "It's a must for anyone who wants to work with style sheets". Web Review said: "Creating style sheets just got easier for designers working on the Mac, as Western Civilisation's Style Master leads the pack of WYSIWYG CSS development tools."
Improvements to this version include
* integrated style sheet advice to smooth the learning curve for new style sheets developers, and save experienced developers trips to their reference material * improved compatibility information for the major browsers * for advanced users, style sheets can now be edited directly, as well as with our intuitive editors * whole sites can now be linked to a style sheet with one action
And a host of other improvements that aid usability and productivity. In short, the best style sheet editor on any platform just got better.
And that special price? normally Style master comes in at a very reasonable $29, but Evangelistas who pay here:
<https://order.kagi.com/cgi-bin/r1.cgi?WC2>
over the next few weeks can get Style Master for $24.
