In the most recent edition of this acclaimed HTML guide, Musciano and Kennedy look closely at every aspect of HTML and show how to use it wisely to create top-quality Web pages. The book is up-to-date, covering HTML 4, Netscape Navigator 4, Microsoft Internet Explorer 4, and the various extensions of each.
HTML: The Definitive Guide is aimed at beginners as well as those who have more practice in Web-page creation. The authors assume at least a basic knowledge of computers, including how to use a word processor or text editor and how to deal with files. They teach you that learning HTML is like learning any other language and that reading a book of rules can only take you so far. Readers begin writing what may be their first Web page just two pages into the book's second chapter. From there on, they provide a wide range of HTML coding to allow readers to learn from good examples. The book includes a handy "cheat sheet" of HTML codes for quick reference. --Elizabeth Lewis
Midwest Book Review:
HTML: The Definitive Guide covers every element of HTML in detail, explaining how each element works and how it interacts with other elements. With hundreds of examples, HTML: The Definitive Guide gives models for writing effective web pages and mastering advanced features like style sheets and frames. HTML: The Definitive Guide shows how to use style sheets and layers to control a document's appearance; create tables; use Netscape's frames to coordinate sets of documents, design and build interactive forms; insert images, sound fields, video, applets, and javascript programs; create documents that look good on a variety of browsers.
Reviewer:
HTML is hyper-text markup language and XML is eXtensible Markup language so when the two are combined you have XHTML. Learning either language is hard enough but together this can be exhausting, however you no longer need to worry as the definitive guide is at your disposal. The authors' make is easy to follow as they include hundreds of examples, diagrams, pictures, table and figures. The books broken down into 17 chapters starting with the basic understanding of HTML and XHTML.
They go on to cover areas and topics such as text, links, tables and frames. They also cover style sheets, rules, images multimedia, lists, CSS, forms, javascript and dynamic documents, by this time you are now at chapter 13 with even more information to follow.
The authors devote whole chapters to XML and XHTML and finally tips and tricks making this a truly definitive guide to work with. Also included is the most complete HTML and XHTML quick reference guide card I have ever come across, I have mine right next to my computer.
Considering I have taught HTML for over three years and helped developed pages in FrontPage, this is by far the best book I have seen that covers both HTML and XHTML. This is one book you may not want to pass on if you are in any part of the web design arena.
