Best book for basic CSS/HTML reference?

I taught myself CSS/HTML but I'm missing some of the really basic stuff. I'd like a reference book that starts from the beginning and explains everything so I can pick up the little stuff I'm missing (particularly CSS positioning... it takes me forever to get it right). Thanks! I learned everything for free online and have found some great tutorials which I learn a lot from but I have to piece information from all over the place.

  1. No point buying a book when you can get it free of the internet. www.w3.org/Style/Examples/011/firstcss is a great one because its made by W3 (the regulators of CSS + HTML).
  2. I liked this one -> http://www.barelyfitz.com/screencast/html-training/css/positioning/ Apress usually has good material. http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-CSS-Web-Development-Professional/dp/1590596897/ref=pd_bbs_sr_6?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1206748560&sr=8-6 http://www.amazon.com/Pro-CSS-HTML-Design-Patterns/dp/1590598040/ref=pd_bbs_sr_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1206748560&sr=8-5 Eric Meyer is the master http://www.amazon.com/CSS-Definitive-Guide-Eric-Meyer/dp/0596527330/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1206748560&sr=8-1
