The most important source of information is the SDK. I can’t stress that enough. There is so much more documentation with this release than there was with 2007. However, we are all in the habit of looking to each other for information first. Researching the SDK and walking through the Development classes, even if you aren’t a developer. is an important step in understanding the complex relationships between the objects in SharePoint and ASP.NET.

CSS and HTML Resources

SharePoint 2010 requires a better understanding of CSS than you needed in SharePoint 2007. You really should be able to plan your css. If you can use the box model on purpose. If you know how to clear a float. If you understand a stacking index, you are okay. If you don’t, practice on plain old HTML first. Build your own HTML from scratch and style it. Draw a design and build it from scratch Plan it.
CSS Sticky Footer You may find yourself struggling to get your footer to stay at the bottom of your page. If you really want this to be a part of your site, test the layout and structure all alone to troubleshoot. Test with and without content on as many site templates as possible.
