Customer Reviews

Nice School Book

I purchased this book for a HTML class I'm taking in college. The book is not only a classic text book, but does lend itself to being a nice reference book down the road.

Excellent

This book is awesome if you want to learn HTML. It is explicit and easy to understand and walks you through step by step. Even a novice with no HTML experience can easily understand. I would highly recommend this book.

Very helpful teaching tool

This was a required textbook for a XHTML class I am taking at a local community college. I have been very impressed with this book in teaching the elementary art of correct coding. Also helpful are the appendices at the end outlining colors, elements, etc. I have learned a lot from it.

Excellent Book for Novices - Hands On Learning

We used this textbook for our first Web Development Class at College and I found it to be very good. I liked doing the tutorials as I read the chapter, and the cases were challenging (but not impossible). The cases are well thought-out and utilize the basics learned in the chapter. It also builds on the previous knowledge. This book would also be appropriate for a high school student -- or anyone who wants to learn a the basics of HTML. I will note that some of the syntax and tags they use are deprecated, but it is pretty current in this fast paced cyber world.

Very good book for a start to learning Web Design

I found this book to be well written as a relative HTML novice and it was comprehensive enough (hence the title) in scope. I thought the projects and exercises were all well thought out. I especially appreciated that they gave a layout reference for all coding during the tutorials to make sure it was written and placed properly. They even gave a set of review-question answers keys at the end of each chapter which was useful for double checking your knowledge. I would recommend this to anyone thinking of getting into Web Design.
