I have an awesome secret work project, but I'm worried that I'm going to get in trouble if I pursue it. Who can I get to help? How can I best negotiate the office politics? Essentially what I want to do is overhaul our website, but it not my place to do so, nor can I easily keep credit for my idea. A little more detail inside (sorry to be so vague)...

I have found it impossible to grasp the concept of CSS. A friend taught me to hand code HTML, then I taught myself how to use Dreamweaver. I love HTML and design nice looking sites that are full of tables, repeated font tags, etc. I really want and need to move on.
I want to learn CSS, but it just does not sink into my pea-brain. I've tried various online tutorials but just can't stay interested, mainly because I get lost pretty quickly into the tutorial.
Certainly it can't be that difficult, what can I do to make this easier for me to absorb?

I'm a web designer and a new client is interested in a CRM (Client Relationship Management). I've never used them (though have used plenty of CMSes). She's mentioned
SalesForce and I've taken a scoop through their site. I'm wondering a) what other CRMs MeFites can recommend and b) if anyone has any first-hand experience with SalesForce itself and can offer any opinion. Thanks.

Fluid CSS Filter: I am looking for examples of a two column Web page with a fluid main column on the left and a rigid width sidebar on the right. The examples need to look good (no simple CSS box diagrammed "how to's"). I want to show this to a client but I want the Web page to be attractively designed to enhance the point I'm trying to make (that this CSS solution is a good thing, natch).

I was wondering if there are some accepted, current standards or design guidelines for web applications.
In particular, I'm wondering about such things as target screen resolution (i.e., don't go wider than 800 pixels), color depth (make everything work at 256 colors), color choices (stick to things like 0xXXYYZZ, where X Y and Z are one of 0, 3, 6, 9, C, and F).
specific answers or pointers to resources are much appreciated.
