Just came across this site. It's an excellent resource for XHTML and CSS and it's English developed by a guy called Patrick Griffiths in London. It has a great beginners section and goes on to explain more complex stuff.

Ah yes, that's an excellent site - they're the authors of the Suckerfish CSS dropdowns that were on Alistapart a while back. I've been there before, but forgotten about it. On one of their demos, they mention using the Suckerfish :target thing to highlight form fields (http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/target/). This is based on the CSS3 :target pseudo class that Moz/FF and Safari already support. The :target selector is quite handy when using named anchors - as sometimes, especially when they're near the bottom of a page, it can be quite hard to see what you're supposed to be looking at. Have a look at this article for more (http://web-graphics.com/mtarchive/001454.php).
