Editorial Reviews

Review

"I have NEVER read such an EXCEPTIONAL presentation of HTML as Quessing's "HTML Fundamentals". This publication is SUPERB! It's incredibly clear, concise, and logically sequenced with practical, jargon-free exercises. Curt Robbins is a very rare author, capable of writing for adults who are new to the information. The materials are perfectly useful for teens as well." -- Sandi Scannelli, Cybercafe & Training Center, 1998

"Microsoft has found Quessing's Internet courseware to be among the best in the industry. Training materials created by Quessing are easy for everyone to understand, yet detailed enough for an expert to gain valuable insight from each training module. Business scenarios cited within each module are especially helpful for individuals trying to comprehend these relatively difficult topics." -- Microsoft Corporation, 1997
