Customer Reviews

Best bucks I've spent in a long time.

I bought this book for my homeschooled daughter to use as a html textbook. It took a few days (chapters 1 & 2 are background/basics), but once she reached chapter 3 she was hooked and has been spending hours at it each day. I am amazed at what she has learned--all on her own. Most books promise more than they deliver, but this book, with the marvelous web site practice area, delivers more than expected. I would highly recommend it to any beginner.

The best for the least

The Project Cool Guide to HTML is the greatest book I have ever seen about creating webpages. I have brought much more expensive books (upwards of $70.00), but they did not come close to giving me the understanding I gained from this title. It is written at an understandable level, and talks about some pretty cool things. It is also the cheapest HTML guide I have EVER seen. Well worth the money.

A must-have member of your programming book library!

What an outstanding guide! I was writing HTML links and tables in less than one day. The interactive Web site makes this book invaluable!

need a web site and don't know where to start?

This book is absolutely the best html book geared toward the beginner. The authors assume the reader has no knowledge of html and start teaching from the ground up. I was an early user of aol's personal publisher and felt limited by it. I bought project cool and knew enough about html to make very nice looking sites in less than a week. I hear PROJECT COOL GUIDE TO ENHANCING YOUR WEB SITE is on its way. I'll be the first to buy it!

Excellent for total beginners

As a web developer (www.mayo.com) i frequently check out www.projectcool.com for ideas. Howerver, I was very disappointed in their book since it is aimed solely at beginners. The book is very well written and i would (and will) recommend it to people just getting started, but not to current developers since they would find it too basic.
