3.0 out of 5 stars HTML 4.0 Fundamentals, February 29, 2000

By	MacMeri "Mac" (Angleton, Texas) - See all my reviews

The content of the book was easy to follow. I had no problem understanding the text or completing the exercises. My only problem with this book was that the some of the exercises in Units 5, 6, & 7 refer to student files not on the floppy disk that came with the book. I was able to manually recreate some files in order to complete the exercises. It was disappointing and frustrating, to say the least, not to have the corresponding files to go with the exercises in the manual. Perhaps I got an old floppy from a previous HTML course the published? Other than that, I enjoyed the tutorial.
