If you not only want to learn SGML painlessly but also want to have a background on the subject, read this book. The author was careful to explain the important aspects of SGML in an easy to read way. When he presents the real code, you will notice how easy it is to read just because he has already explained it in an easy way. I recommend one chapter a day, every day. When you finish it, go back and read again, not in order, but specific parts that interest you.

Ok guys, this is the mother language of the HTML format. Read this book now. The insight on how to not just arrange and develop a good doc flow in any program is just the tip of the ice berg. Wait till you understand how it gives you intuitive insight in creating web sites or figuring out others sites.

Even if you do not get to program in these languages yourself you will surely be able to describe or design what you want on a story board or paper, and give this to your web designers or other doc control people.

It's a fast read and the extra plus side comes if you decide you really want to write html or other doc languages. This is the place to start.
