    The "Basic Setup" block uses smart quotes instead of straight quotes in the HTML. This doesn't matter so much when working off a print-out (as opposed to a copy-and-paste example), but might be worth fixing for the .1 release.

    -Nitpicker.

    Adam, thanks for catching that, I'll forward it on to the person who made it.

    If blueprint was good and simple, we didn't need a cheatsheet.
    These class names just don't work if you haven't written them.
    If you can't write your own css "library", forget it and get back to Dreamweaver.

    I see how to do columns. How do I do row spacers with Blueprint? For now, I'm doing just a div start and end tag with a non-breaking space inside and no class assignment.

  10. Christian Montoya on May 10, 2008

    Volo: I'm not sure what you mean by row spacers…

  11. kj on July 31, 2008

    He means using divs as spacers which is bad practice… how would you suggest using blueprint and creating gaps between spans both horizontally and vertically.

  12. Christian Montoya on July 31, 2008

    I wouldn't suggest relying on Blueprint for that… if you need to apply various spacing to your rows, you would give each one an ID and in your custom CSS, apply margins to those rows. If you want every container to have some extra spacing, then you can just modify the "container" class in your custom CSS.

  13. KJ on November 12, 2008

    Ok. That's what I've been doing so far but I just wondered if Blueprint had a facility to take care of that.

    Cheers.
