5.0 out of 5 stars most useful reference I have, June 16, 2000

By	M. E. Cowan "maiac" (Royal Oak, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I use this book constantly while I'm working on HTML. I recommend it for all HTML users from beginners to experts. I'm a self-taught HTML author and I've learned as much from this reference as from actual tutorials. I particularly like that it has an "index" of HTML tags printed on the inside covers, because usually I just need to check the syntax for a specific tag and this list makes it very convenient to find what I'm looking for. For each tag, the book provides a definition of how it's used, a list of the attributes with brief descriptions, context (other tags within which the tag can be used), suggested usage, and -- best of all -- examples.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful reference, March 22, 2004

By	Paul M. Barajas "pmbarajas" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews

I use this book quite a bit. In fact, I'm on my second copy (my first having fallen apart). My brother, who is also an HTML programmer, is on his fifth copy. This book never fails to teach me something new just by browsing through it. I love the fact that it is just a straight reference, and not a how-to book.
