in 24 hours or even far less

This is a great book to learn how to create your own website. It teaches you all the basic skills in 24 chapters of 1 hour each. However, if you have any basic knowledge of MS office programs, you can do each chapter in about 30-45 minutes. Also, because of the rational order of the chapters, you do not have to wait for the last chapter before you can start creating your own web pages.The Dutch version that I was using came with FrontPage Express on the accompanying CD-Rom and even though my website is by this time already 8 megs, it is still the program I am using instead of the very expensive full version of FrontPage. So this book was awfully good value for money. And making a website is real fun, so try it!

I was clueless!

From an earlier review: ><p>Had to laugh; that's me! I've got grandkids this kids age. I checked this out at the library, renewed it twice, and had to HAVE it. I especially liked that it's equally good for Macs and those others. This got me through getting my first web site up and running -- I don't intend to use it for marketing or anything else high traffic. This book gave me everything I needed as well as some pointers about how to go further if I ever want to.

I learned so much from this book!

Since I had Netscape Composer already, I was thrilled to find such a great book that focused exclusively on it. I learned an immense amount very quickly, and now have my own site up and running. This book taught me the basics of web design, and now I am ready to move on to a highter powered WYSIWYG and to hand coding HTML.

Good book for beginners

This books is a great book for those who are new to web page creation. While it doesn't insult the intelligence of seasoned designers, it does a great deal in building the confidence of those who want to try their hand at making web pages. I doubt that a person can become a web page designing expert in 24 hours, and you will probably spend more than 24 hours if you follow the letter of this book, but there is a wealth of knowledge in the text. This books is a great resource - it will make you think twice about spending money for web design programs when so much creation can be done free on freeware.
