Definitive Article On CSS 2

CSS Layouts

Am converting an existing application of mine from table layout to CSS layout.  I must admint, the CSS layout makes it a little bit better (probably a lot better) but the conversion is not easy. seen so many convert table to css topics on the net but still need a definitive article on CSS 2. please don't point me to w3

Actually CSS2 introduced positioning which is the basis for using css as a layout tech. Looking for an article that explains css2 with emphasis on using it as a layout tool
