5.0 out of 5 stars An Upgrade (for me)

I was using an old HTML book by the same author - it was from my college days. I decided, since so much has changed, to get an upgraded version by the same author - I like the style of writing and examples. I would recommend it to anyone else interested in modern Web Page Development for beginners.

1.0 out of 5 stars This author is an idiot
Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2011

The book's crowning moment of stupidity: Teaching the concept of variables, then trying to explain object-oriented programming, then backtracking to teach conditional statements. This is not an isolated incident, either. The description touts a new "accessibility section" supposedly teaching Section 508 compliance, yet repeatedly stresses table-based layouts and image maps throughout.

I was assigned this book for a class in 2011, six years after publishing, at which point it was so far out-of-date and obsolete that any student learning from this book could arguably be farther behind than if they had skipped the class entirely. If your teacher attempts to assign this book to any class today or in the future, find someone who knows web design, let them skim the book, and then use them as a character witness to get that class dropped.

excellent books with step-by-step instructions for creating web pages. I am new to IT so am glad it's written in "regular joe" speak and not "IT speak" which is very helpful to someone like me who is making a career change.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent HTML etc Textbook
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2006
One of the best books on the subject I've encountered in the last thirteen years of working with the internet. The tutorials are excellent - in that they appeared to be well debugged prior to publication. They do an excellent job in preparing a student for any of the four cases found at the end of each section. The only weakness encountered was that there was no comprehensive reference table of tags and associated attributes.

I have not yet received my textbook and the semester is half over. I am not sure it is worth keeping if I haven't been able to use it.
