Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

The title of HTML & Web Design is somewhat misleading, as the bulk of the book focuses more on advanced technologies such as Java, PHP, ASP, and XHTML. Although the first three chapters do cover HTML basics, tables, and forms, beginning designers will be better served by Virtual Classroom, owing to its clear, in-depth coverage of HTML. The video lessons on the CD-ROM are a fantastic addition, building on concepts introduced in the text and providing an alternative learning method for auditory learners. Recommended for all libraries; larger libraries might consider HTML & Web Design as well.

Jeesh! This book ranges from your first HTML page to looking at HTTP headers within an Active SErver Page. The chapters present several hundred working Web pages.

I wish I had had this a year ago -- would have saved a lot of time and effort.

If you design Web pages -- you will benefit from this book's tips.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, January 2, 2004

This review is from: HTML & Web Design Tips & Techniques (Paperback)

I found this book to be excellent. It is very rare today to find a computer science book that is thorough, logical and well organized, yet brief and to the point. This can be said for all of the chapters in this book. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn about web programming.

Outstanding. If you need quick access to important web design information, I highly recommend this book. It covers the most important elements and then moves into other, high-level areas, like CSS. I really like the format, and in the short time that I have been using the book, I have found all of the information that I need. This is a good one for the reference shelf.
