This is a can't miss for the novice web designer! | | Total Votes: 4, Helpful Votes: 4, Date: 1998-07-22 | | | | Perfect for beginners. Breezy style; focuses on right things | Rating:  | | I'm a software developer, and spent some time looking at beginner's HTML books recently because my dad asked for a recommendation. This book was my favorite of the ones I looked at. This book is perfect for newcomers to HTML. The author focuses on all the right things, drawing special attention to common areas of confusion, such as: pairing of HTML begin/end tags; resizing images; alignment of text around images; and so on. The book starts with super-simple samples. Note: unfortunately, there's a serious mistake in the very first HTML sample! Near the top of p. 28, where the sample has one line which says, "", cross out the "<>", so that it just says, "Hi, my name is Paul Meyers". But don't let this mistake worry you; it's the only one I saw in the book.The author has a breezy, joking style which I think will work well for beginners, preventing them from being intimidated. But he knows what he's talking about. This book does not talk at all about fancier stuff like Javascript, ActiveX, and so on. And I think that's a good thing. Those are deep subjects which shouldn't be discussed in a beginning book. One other problem: The book frequently refers the reader to an accompanying web site, however, that web site is empty! As of this writing, the site says, "Under Construction." Hopefully they'll fix this soon. | | Total Votes: 15, Helpful Votes: 15, Date: 1998-07-02 | | |
