4.0 out of 5 stars Very good but somewhat out dated, January 29, 2009
I bought this book to learn XHTML and CSS, the latest standards in web development. I found the book very easy to understand and mostly it met my needs. The color examples made the code stand out and less confusing than if the book was printed in black ink. However, when it got to developing tables, the authors used depreciated HTML code which I found disappointing. I was hoping that they would have used the latest CSS standards to do it. All in all, I found the book to be good, but not excellent, introduction to HTML, XHTML.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Book at the Perfect Time, August 2, 2008
Finally a book that could help me! This was the perfect book at the perfect time.
Now I may or may not be an actual 'dummy', but I can say that this was the first book I've read that really helped me. I searched the book stores (sorry Amazon) looking for a book that could help me re-start a website, and all I could find was a bunch of over technical and complicated volumes that were hard for me to understand. This book was a good introduction book that I found very easy to read without being bogged down with too much technical jargon. The examples were basic but easy to understand and I was able to apply what I learned to help me get my broken-down web site actually working. I was about to give up my hopes of having a 'working' web site, and resign myself to living with the 'technical-dinosaurs'. Fortunately, this book turned all that around for me. Thank you Mr. Tittel and Mr Noble. I will be sending you guys a link to my site soon, so you can see what your book has made possible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource Book, May 15, 2009
This book was very easy to comprehend. I didn't have any understanding of HTML, XHTML, or CSS until I read it. Thanks to Jeff Noble and Ed Tittle, I was able to create a community website for New Bern, NC. Check it out http://www.NewBernNow.com! I recommend this book to anyone who doesn't have previous knowledge of the topic.
