Excellent

I hope this book is reprinted. It is the single source book of code that I keep on my desk. I have recommended it everyone who asks and I am sorry to see it is gone!!

Unique, simple layout

I also use this book as a text, even though it is a bit dated compared to Castro's Visual Quickstart Guide (which I also use). The layout of the book is the reason it remains of value, and will so for years. For someone learning the basics of HTML, each two-page spread covers an HTML tag. The lefthand page describes the tag and dissects it, describing all attributes and values they can take. The right side shows an example of the code and how it looks in a browser. There is no clearer way to explain HTML for beginners than this. One caveat, though ... the appendix with the numeric codes for special and reserved characters is seriously flawed. If there is an edition for HTML4.x, the editor of that book had best make sure the errors in that table are corrected.

Terrific Reference for everyone!

I've really enjoyed this book very much. This book provides a disection of each tag and a picture of the source code and the outcome. As a reference it's helpful, because it provides a clear and consise format. Plus, it'a a great size to carry around. Can't wait for the next edition!

This is an excellent desk reference.

After you have read an introduction book on HTML, you'll appreciate having this book nearby. The book has good examples and is easy to work with.

An excellent resource for students learning HTML.

I use this book as a textbook for students taking a tertiary course on setting up websites. The format of explainations on the left page and the output on the right page is excellent. The condensed nature makes it ideal for student budgets. Even people wanting to get started on their own will find this book hard to beat
