I'm thinking of getting into the web designing business . I am aware that I will bump into a lot of CSS headaches , and I'm certain people have bumped into them long before I did . Is there a website I could check for solutions to common problems (e.g:aligning an image like this doesn't show up in IE)?
Something like a cookbook would be great ! ( I know of CSS Cookbook , but I would like something more problem-oriented )

You can learn a lot by comparing the base CSS and the featured design CSS files. It is a great example of the power of CSS to vastly alter a design without touching the underlying XHTML.

AListApart is a compilation of articles which is great for expanding knowledge but not a resource per so to find solutions to problems. Want to know how to tame lists? Sure go there, but if you want to know about a browser hack or know all the 3-col layout techniques, forget about it.

um, StackOverflow?
EDIT: this answer was intended to be humorous but is also serious. StackOverflow is a great place to find solutions to specific CSS scenarios.

It's not offensive, just an often repeated answer. I guess I'm grouchy today.

Sitepoint has started a very good reference for CSS (as well as JavaScript and HTML)

Wow, I can't believe no one mentioned css-discuss.
It is the single most comprehensive CSS resource. There isn't a CSS issue I have run into that I have not found documented there (and if you do run into one, please be sure to add it).
