I am a begginner starting from scratch. Currently on page 470 of this 650 pages book. This book is fun and its very hard for me to put it down and let it rest. I am learning so much! I bought this book less then a week ago and I only have 200 pages to go. Amazing!! I thought it would take me forever, and id want to return the book after a day or two. ABSOLUTELY NOT! This is the best text book let alone the best html guide I have ever read. Cant wait for their PHP AND MYSQL book that is coming out only in DEC 08. I dont know what else to say besides, if you want to learn the core of html and css the right way, this is diffenetly for you! |

| A Great Introduction | Rating:  |
| Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML was a great introduction to writing (x)html/css. The book is written in clear, simple language in a conversational style, and is filled with graphical cues to enhance recognition and comprehension. I particularly loved the focus on context -- it's so helpful to finally understand the *why* behind the rules! The authors are upbeat and practical throughout (although their jokes do get a bit old), and their Q&A sections frequently anticipated my questions with mind-reader accuracy. The exercises in the book were perfectly pitched - demonstrative, useful, and repetitive without being boring. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a solid, practical introduction to html / xhtml & css. |

| This is the first book in a long time that I read cover-to-cover. It's pure gold! You can hand this book to someone with zero HTML or CSS experience, and when they are finished, they will be producing valid XHTML with CSS. This book doesn't even bother teaching the old HTML tags to avoid confusion. It's also good for experienced HTML programmers wanting to move to XHTML and CSS. A very humorous and fun book! It's well worth every penny. |

| I love this book. It takes an interesting approach to teaching HTML by first introducing a topic, then driving it into your brain by giving you comics, crossword puzzles, and other fun things to do to test your knowledge. And, of course, it has many great practice problems where you actually build websites using not just the things from that chapter, but it combines everything you have learned so far throughout the book. This is another great book from O'Reilly publishers. They have other Headfirst books that I am definitely going to check out, because I just love this one. Five stars. |

| This is the first book in a long time that I read cover-to-cover. It's pure gold! You can hand this book to someone with zero HTML or CSS experience, and when they are finished, they will be producing valid XHTML with CSS. This book doesn't even bother teaching the old HTML tags to avoid confusion. It's also good for experienced HTML programmers wanting to move to XHTML and CSS. A very humorous and fun book! It's well worth every penny. |

| Great book! | Rating:  |
| I love this book. It takes an interesting approach to teaching HTML by first introducing a topic, then driving it into your brain by giving you comics, crossword puzzles, and other fun things to do to test your knowledge. And, of course, it has many great practice problems where you actually build websites using not just the things from that chapter, but it combines everything you have learned so far throughout the book. This is another great book from O'Reilly publishers. They have other Headfirst books that I am definitely going to check out, because I just love this one. Five stars. |

I am a begginner starting from scratch. Currently on page 470 of this 650 pages book. This book is fun and its very hard for me to put it down and let it rest. I am learning so much! I bought this book less then a week ago and I only have 200 pages to go. Amazing!! I thought it would take me forever, and id want to return the book after a day or two. ABSOLUTELY NOT! This is the best text book let alone the best html guide I have ever read. Cant wait for their PHP AND MYSQL book that is coming out only in DEC 08. I dont know what else to say besides, if you want to learn the core of html and css the right way, this is diffenetly for you! |

| A Great Introduction | Rating:  |
| Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML was a great introduction to writing (x)html/css. The book is written in clear, simple language in a conversational style, and is filled with graphical cues to enhance recognition and comprehension. I particularly loved the focus on context -- it's so helpful to finally understand the *why* behind the rules! The authors are upbeat and practical throughout (although their jokes do get a bit old), and their Q&A sections frequently anticipated my questions with mind-reader accuracy. The exercises in the book were perfectly pitched - demonstrative, useful, and repetitive without being boring. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a solid, practical introduction to html / xhtml & css. |

I am a begginner starting from scratch. Currently on page 470 of this 650 pages book. This book is fun and its very hard for me to put it down and let it rest. I am learning so much! I bought this book less then a week ago and I only have 200 pages to go. Amazing!! I thought it would take me forever, and id want to return the book after a day or two. ABSOLUTELY NOT! This is the best text book let alone the best html guide I have ever read. Cant wait for their PHP AND MYSQL book that is coming out only in DEC 08. I dont know what else to say besides, if you want to learn the core of html and css the right way, this is diffenetly for you! |

| A Great Introduction | Rating:  |
| Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML was a great introduction to writing (x)html/css. The book is written in clear, simple language in a conversational style, and is filled with graphical cues to enhance recognition and comprehension. I particularly loved the focus on context -- it's so helpful to finally understand the *why* behind the rules! The authors are upbeat and practical throughout (although their jokes do get a bit old), and their Q&A sections frequently anticipated my questions with mind-reader accuracy. The exercises in the book were perfectly pitched - demonstrative, useful, and repetitive without being boring. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a solid, practical introduction to html / xhtml & css. |

| This is the first book in a long time that I read cover-to-cover. It's pure gold! You can hand this book to someone with zero HTML or CSS experience, and when they are finished, they will be producing valid XHTML with CSS. This book doesn't even bother teaching the old HTML tags to avoid confusion. It's also good for experienced HTML programmers wanting to move to XHTML and CSS. A very humorous and fun book! It's well worth every penny. |

| I love this book. It takes an interesting approach to teaching HTML by first introducing a topic, then driving it into your brain by giving you comics, crossword puzzles, and other fun things to do to test your knowledge. And, of course, it has many great practice problems where you actually build websites using not just the things from that chapter, but it combines everything you have learned so far throughout the book. This is another great book from O'Reilly publishers. They have other Headfirst books that I am definitely going to check out, because I just love this one. Five stars. |
