The Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating an HTML 4 Web Page
by Paul McFedries

click for details Customer comment:
I got this book and found that it was easily understood even for those (like me) who haven't got an inkling of how to create a web page. Our results: our webpages look great and are easily understood by all who visit them; they make sense, and keep you from getting lost! Paul McFedries did a great job of wittily writing this book He makes it fun to read and makes it easy to learn the art of webpage construction. I highly recommend it. I chuckled all the way through it and painlessly learned a lot!

Teach Yourself HTML 4 in 24 Hours
by Dick Oliver, Molly Holzschlag

click for details Customer comment:
The authors have put the information together in an easy-to-understand order and have been very thorough in the content. The quizes at the end of each chapter are excellent as are the examples throughout each chapter. The order of the information presented is well thought out such that as I thought of a question, the next paragraph or chapter would cover it. I highly recommend this book. I have purchased many HTML books, and this is the best one I've come across so far!!!

Not only was this book useful for finding any info I needed while I was writing my pages, I also learned JavaScript, Java, and VRML. Get this book, a book on Perl CGI, and a VBScript book, and you can do just about anything in the way of web programming!

Dynamic HTML : The Definitive Reference
by Danny Goodman

I think this book is amazing. I have a little experience with dhtml before I bought it but this book is a must have. It not only covers dhtml, but html and javascript. Compatability issues of each tag with different versions of IE and NN are also a plus. I also saved money by buying one book for these three subjects instead of three.

HTML: the Definitive Guide
by Musciano

I've bought my fair share of books about HTML, and it has to be said that this is the best by far. A clear, well written book with plenty of well thought-out examples that are easy to apply. The inclusion of appendices concludes an essential purchase.

Instant HTML
by Alex Homer, Chris Ullman, Steve Wright

click for details Customer comment:
This book (and previously, it's predecessor) is always within arms reach when I'm working. The browser-compatibilty charts in the HTML reference tables (Appendix A) are worth the price alone for anyone who must write cross-browser Html. Also includes a CSS reference and (brief) JavaScript & VBScript references. Quite simply, a must-have.
