2.0 out of 5 stars Required Files Not Provided, April 29, 2010

This review is from: New Perspectives on HTML, XHTML, and XML (New Perspectives (Course Technology Paperback)) (Paperback)

The text does a competent job of explaining the fundamentals of its subject matter, but the price is much too high compared to better-written, more informative texts on the same subjects. Also, the files needed to actually complete case problems and review projects are not included on a disc, but available through a companion site. Unfortunately, the files for tutorials 11+ are not available to download, making these review sections entirely useless and posing a serious problem for students in courses which utilize this text.

I would not recommend this book to anyone: there are far cheaper, more useful books on the subject available, not to mention the wealth of knowledge available for free on the Internet.

Have to download the files on a different site, but good book, awfully expensive though.
