Summary: Visually Exciting
Review: This invaluable instruction manual breaks down web page design to its simplest form, and teaches how to harness the power and versatility of HTML to generate attractive looking web pages. The impression of having a private `tutor' guiding you each step of the way is created through the step-by-step visual approach, seeing that you can emulate the exact procedures outlined without any apprehension, and then view the final result in a browser to measure your progress. Each procedure is conveyed in a logical sequence beginning with the basic concepts and proceeding to more advanced themes, so that learning HTML becomes effortless. This method of visually imparting knowledge eliminates the problem of having to leaf through several pages to find the screen shot that relates to the instructions, along with the frustration of having to re-read the same paragraph many times in order to grasp the main point. There is a detachable page at the beginning of the book containing a hexadecimal value colour chart with sample colours that can be applied to enhance the appearance of a page, and for easy reference, a comprehensive summary of all the HTML tags used in the course and their functions are given at the end of the book. In addition to the basic HTML tags, this impressive book also covers such areas as resizing images, creating tables, frames, adding sound and video, image maps, java applets and many more features that will allow you to easily create and publish professional looking web pages. This pictorial, self-teaching `tutor' is just what any beginner or advanced student needs to benefit from the exciting domain of web page design.

Summary: This book is fun!
Review: This is a great book for the computer-challenged individual. If you need to see what to do as well as be told what to do, this book will fill your requirement. It is quite basic. Instructions are simple and clear. I bought this book so that I could learn to build a website (which my high-tech teen age son promised to teach me one year ago but for which he never found the time). Before I could even begin to get proficient with my HTML coding using this book, my 13-year-old daughter snatched up the book and taught herself how to do a web site. Now she's miles ahead of me!

Summary: Oh so easy to understand!
Review: This was an incredibly easy book to understand. Minimal words, lots of colorful pictures and fun graphics which show you (instead of describing to you) how to perform a function. I had another HTML book that I just got bored with after about 50 pages. This book was so engaging that I pretty much finished the book in a day and am able to start coding in HTML. This is a very good "how-to" book in the technical aspect of HTML. The only down side is that it promotes poor web page design (but this book is not about learning design so I'm still giving it 5 stars). For the design aspect of web pages, I would recommend picking up a copy of Robin William's "Design for Non-Designers" or "Web Design for Non-Designers." A must for the beginner!

Summary: I love this book.
Review: Using this book is as simple as flipping through its pages to find a picture of the effect you want and then following the script below the picture while adding your own personal information in the blanks. It is very complete and very helpful, especially for a beginner who needs to do a web page, but will not do a lot of web pages day in and day out.
