A real "Reference Guide" for HTML 4.0

I found this book very useful, not only for its extensive description of all tags and attributes, but also for the useful appendixes at the end of the book. There is a very good summary of CSS properties, Javascript language, a VBScript run-time error table, several pages filled with HTML color names and hexadecimal values, so that you don't have to use any special product to create pages with matching colors. I recommend this guide to all those that want to write HTML conforming to the W3C reccomendations.

An Incredible Reference Manual

This is an incredible guide to HTML, and I carry it with me wherever I go.Not just a reference guide, each chapter presents a theme. For instance, there's a chapter on forms, a chapter on Frames, etc.Size-wise, it fits nicely into your briefcase.This book is invaluable to anyone who needs to do web development.

An excellent reference for new and advanced HTML programmers

This is by far the best reference book in my collection. The format is clear, consise, and easy to read, without being cluttered by heavy use of pictures and symbols, unlike many other HTML references. This book improves a great deal on its predecessor with the coverage of HTML 4.0 and Cascading Style Sheets, a must-know for anyone involved in Web development. And it's still small enough to fit in a briefcase.

An excellent, comprehensive reference book

Mr. Wright's book is well organized, loaded with illustrations, and a pleasure to read. The last chapters, which cover scripting languages and the anticipated introduction of style sheets, provide a valuable look ahead to the world of Netscape/MSIE 4. This book also a bargain

A great reference guide. Not bad for a novice either

The is one really good book. It explains in some detail all the HTML tags and their attributes without becoming long-winded on any one subject. This book has made many things very clear to me. If you're brand new to web page authoring..buy it because it will suppliment your beginner's book. If you are already familiar with writing web pages..buy it because of it's quick reference value. I don't think you can find a better book for the $$
