Web Standards, XHTML, CSS--THE Book For Learning

I teach college courses on Web development that emphasize Web standards and usability. This is one of only two entry-level (X)HTML + CSS books that I will recommend to students, and this is THE book I recommend for those who want to get started in the field as an in-depth guide to standards-based Web development, or as an excellent, no-frills reference for your Web development bookshelf.

Novice, this is it.

I am a novice. If you are a novice, have never built your web page and you want now to do it and you are computer savvy look no further. What you learn here are the basics that you will have to learn no matter which book you choose. Do not waste your time learning just HTML, it has to be XHTML from the start which is easier and the latest so your Web Page downloads fast. The author, Ian Lloyd, knows how to keep your attention and writes in an easy and non-technical way. He shows you by example, step by step instructions to build a real Web Page, from the 1st brick until fully functional. He gives you a lot of information were to go after you read this book if you want to progress more. Believe me Mr. Novice, this is it.

Perfect

This book really couldn't have been more useful.

I've been working in HTML and CSS for about a year using Dreamweaver. I didn't have a great grasp of the basics, but didn't want to spend money on a book to cover what I already knew. I took a chance on this one and I'm glad I did.

The author's writing style is upbeat, but not overly playful. Other How-to books tend to take the humor too far (____ for Dummies) but this one strikes the right balance.

More importantly, the information is well explained and usually works on the first try. In other words, one can learn a great deal and build a working product quickly with this book.

I now have a knowledge base that helps me in every facet of web design. If you feel you're missing a few pieces of the puzzle, or are new to web design- you'll love this book.

Good book for beginners/refresher

I knew a bit about css and html back in high school, but needed a refresh, so I got this book. It did help me alot to not only remember css/html, and also help me do it the right way. After reading this book, you should be able to create a pretty decent website (assuming you have a creative mindset and apply these techniques to your own logic).

The book also covered tables and forms pretty well. Other useful stuff include how to put the site online, how to activate the forms, and other web-related advice.

There are a few minor cons to this book. There wasn't any info on frames (i would like to know). Theres a one small typo in the form chapter which confused me a lot. Also, the author could have skipped a couple of pages that deals with people who also beginners with computers.

Overall, I recommend this book for people who dont know anything about css/html and people who know css/html a little bit but wants to learn to do it the correct way. I would also like to note this book is probably not worth the money for people who know decent css/html.

Great - even for someone who is not a beginner

I've been using HTML for 14 years, and have a long experience in software development, but I really found this book interesting and useful. I would highly recommend this to all, experienced and inexperienced - you're never too old to relearn!
