Great book
Ok, my written english isn't good at all, but I'd just wanna say how much I love this book. I have been studying html and css for some time now, and I already knew something when I bought this book, and what I think great about it is that it's so detailed about how the things work in html, xhtml and css that it's like if I was learning everything from the beginning again, but this time knowing exactly what I was doing and why.
Well, that's it.. sorry for my english.
For both beginners and experts
I've taught HTML and e-commerce at the university level for about a decade now. This book is the best I have found. I use it as my personal reference. I require it for my classes.
It covers the essentials. It gives clear examples. It is organized in a logical order that works. It can be used by someone who has never tried to build a web page, and also has enough 'meat' so that those who have been building pages for years can find useful information and tips throughout.
I just wish I could find books on some of my other subjects that are as well written and organized as this.
Ok
This book is ok. I had to get it for a class. The writing is alittle hard to follow, but it is a good reference.
Great for beginners
I purchased this book to use in a class I was taking. I had no prior knowledge of HTML, but this book does an excellent job of introducing the reader to designing web pages. I found the chapters very easy to follow and the exercises were kind of fun as you got to practice what you just read about. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to learn HTML.
BBB complaint going on
CD came damaged from xpresstext in which there is a large mark/scratch across the CD using priority shipping and after attempting to notify them and Amazon 4 times, no response until I contacted the BBB and Amazon will not help because I did complain to the BBB. Guess it is up to the BBB now.
