5.0 out of 5 stars Definately great for learning on your own, June 27, 2000

This review is from: New Perspectives on Creating Web Pages with HTML -- Introductory (Paperback)

This book is GREAT for self study. I orignally had bought it for a class at college. I found myself reading the book in class instead of listening to the lecture and with some practice at home I was able to learn the first four weeks of the class in only a few days. This book is a very good book for beginners. The author is very good about explaining the concepts of HTML by using one main example for each new skill being taught. He could have went a little more in depth with frames, but I have yet to find a book that explains how to make frames very easily. The author also touches a bit of javascript which was nice. Definately worth the money.

I thought that this book was very comprehensive and easy to follow. I loved the way they set up a specific case for each tutorial so that you were creating web pages as you learned the new material.
