5.0 out of 5 stars The ONLY HTML book you will EVER need, May 25, 2000

Don't buy one of those gigantic 30lb books w/ a CD in the back... they're overwhelming and expensive... and totally over-blow the whole simplicity of web development.

Tim Evans nails it on the head. I bought quite a bit of intro books when I wanted to put up my first web page... they are all boat anchors and door stops now.

I have been a professional web designer for over 4 years and I owe it to this easy intro by Tim Evans. I read the small book in one day and I had my first web page up in 5 minutes.

Anytime someone asks me how to get into web design & programming, this is the only book I recommend.

It's cheap, it's short and it gets right to the point. Thanks to Mr. Evans for being a cybergeek AND being able to speak to neophytes at the same time!

A great, easy-to-follow book, that describes very clearly not only HTML, but basic Javascript and VBscript as well. Almost every possible option of the HTML language is described here, in very clear words. Everything from Lists to plug-ins to image maps to CGI!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a concise, easy to follow book on HTML programming!, February 6, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: 10 Minute Guide to HTML 3.2 (Paperback)

This small, almost pocket sized 228 page book covers all the basics of HTML programming, and touches on some of the other mysteries of Web Page creation such as Java, ActiveX, VBScript and VRML. Very easy to follow with example of how to create each situation. Save a lot of time and money with this book. Tom
