Converting HTML to XHTML in Dreamweaver MX
Didn’t know about this feature till I read this article - http://builder.com.com/5100-6371_14-5061538.html
You can also use Dreamweaver MX to convert existing HTML files to XHTML 1.0 Transitional. After opening an HTML file in Dreamweaver, select File | Convert | XHTML. If Dreamweaver encounters code it can’t convert, such as <img> tags without alt text, it provides a report at the end of the conversion process. From there, you can manually repair the offending code.

CSS Shorthand Guide
Someone once asked me what’re the shorthand values for font properties. I wasn’t so sure because I was never a big fan of shorthand. Well, today, I came across this article while surfing online, and thought I should bookmark it here coz it might come in handy one day.
