5.0 out of 5 stars Great Intro Book, January 2, 2001

By 

"[e-mail]" (Mountain View, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: HTML Web Publishing 6-in-1 (Paperback)

This book is a great for anyone wishing to learn HTML. It's clear and very informative. Beginner and intermediate HTML users will find it a great buy.

It's only short-coming is the absence of a list of tags and their uses. "HTML 4" by Elizabeth Castro has this, and it is very useful for a quick reference. However the Castro Text is less suited for a beginner.

The 6 in 1 guide covers HTML, CSS, and DHTML as well or better than many texts that cover only one of these subjects. The book really explains why things are done, instead of showing you how to do something but not telling you why you'd want to do it.

You'll be very happy with the book if you're just starting out.

4.0 out of 5 stars Terrific book for beginners, February 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: HTML Web Publishing 6-in-1 (Paperback)

This is a terrific book for beginners; it has clear, easy-to-understand examples and gives you info other books assume you already know; like how to actually PUBLISH your site; but it has a couple of shortcomings that prevent me from giving it five stars. First, the section on VRML is a complete waste. Secondly, the scripting sections leave a bit to be desired, but they at least give you an introduction to basic scripting and DHTML. This is a good reference book for amateur web designers and a fabulous starter course for HTML newbies; however, more advanced web developers won't benefit at all from it; and even newbies will quickly outgrow it. That's a testament to how well it conveys the information!

For the intermediate level HTML programmer, this book covers a wide variety of topics such as style sheets, dynamic HTML, scripting, table and frame design, etc. I refer to it constantly.
