4.0 out of 5 stars Good Primer but misleading title, November 10, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Teach Yourself Netscape 4 Web Publishing in a Week (Sams Teach Yourself) (Paperback)

This is a good primer and self-teaching manual for HTML. However the Netscape content seems like an afterthought to a finished manual to get title appeal. It barely describes the menu bars of Netscape and Composer and provides almost no info on setting up and customizing preferences. The author's premise is right that one should learn HTML basics before using an editor like Composer it's disapointing if you just bought the book to hurl up a homepage quick and dirty.

5.0 out of 5 stars ~~~Great for Netscapers~~~, March 20, 2003

I belong to a group of 18+,- that use
Netscape as the medium to learn everything
that can be done in e-mail.This book will
make it easier to learn HTML.

There was no cd with the manual,
the website provided was not
accessible, nor was the
e-mail support address.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time, March 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Teach Yourself Netscape 4 Web Publishing in a Week (Sams Teach Yourself) (Paperback)

I thought the book was a waste of time. If you really want to know how to make web pages the quick and easy way, get yourself an HTML book, like The Complete Reference HTML 2nd Edition, and get a freeware or shareware text editor and do it that way. I've found certain bugs in Netscape 4 that would make a 60k page balloon to 300k.
