1.0 out of 5 stars Very confusing layout - not recommended, April 28, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Html Quick Reference (Paperback)

This book is very comprehensive and I liked the fact that it was easy to tell which tags were compliant with which browsers, but it's impossible to find anything because every tag and every tag attribute has it's own listing, and if you look up a tag you then have to turn to 10 different pages to read about the attributes for the tag. It takes FOREVER to find anything in this "quick reference" book

5.0 out of 5 stars The only HTML book I ever use., May 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Html Quick Reference (Paperback)

I have been a web professional since '94, and I love this book. It is simply a list of all the HTML, no gibberish, no trying to teach me what good design is (I already know that!).

It's the flat head screwdriver of any proffesionals toolbox, simple, but indespensible.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent format, has some errors and needs more examples, December 28, 1996

By A Customer

This review is from: Html Quick Reference (Paperback)

The layout of the book is excellent. I did find some errors (even with my very limited knowledge of the subject).
I'd like to have seen another section in the book that would have expanded the examples and described some of the options for the commands in greater detail.
I realize that the book is a reference book rather than an HTML tutorial, but it's layed out so nicely I think just a little more information would really make the book a "10"!
