Summary: One of the best books out there on HTML Period.
Review: This book in probably one of the best books out there on HTML. I had no experience with HTML yet had a web set up and running in less then a month. It will take you a while to read this book but your time will be worth while. The books offers numerious examples that will guide you in your efforts. All the example are highly helpful when you need a quick guide to help you with a particular project. One great effort of the book is the Table of Contents. Just by looking at the table of contents, you will learn all the different parts to the HTML options out there. After using this book, there are other options you will learn that converge from HTML. This includes Java, Perl, and CGI. This book give great intoductions to these platforms also. Jason

Summary: The only HTML book you need.
Review: This book is the only HTML book you'll need. It's as comprehensive--and as easily accessible--as it's possible for one book on HTML to be. This book covers every official HTML 4.0 tag, as well as *every* other tag added by the major browsers--a claim no other book I know of can make. This book is something new in HTML coverage--Black Books are written in a compact format that lets us pack in an incredible amount of HTML. There are more than 600 examples, ready to run. The table of contents alone is 18 pages long. We create Web pages that can send email, create and use cookies, redirect browsers, change themselves on the fly, react to the time of day, determine what browser the user has, open new browser windows, display dialog boxes, display inline video, support all dynamic HTML effects, print themselves on the user's printer, support drag and drop, play background sounds, connect to databases on Web servers, animate text in the status bar, react to mouse movements--far more than there's space to list here. This book is the only one that goes all out--we'll create transparent, interlaced, and animated GIFs, multimedia presentations, Java applets, server-side and client-side image maps, CGI scripts that run on the server, XML documents, bind XML documents to databases, and nearly everything else you can do with a browser. You also get a true working knowledge of JavaScript so you can script your pages, Java so you can create applets, dynamic HTML to make those pages come alive, and Perl to create CGI scripts (unlike other books that gloss over those topics). This book is designed to be literally the new standard in HTML coverage. It lists not only what browsers and what versions of those browsers support every tag, but also lists that data for every *attribute* of every tag. Everything you need is here--from start to finish, I really believe the coverage here stands head and shoulders above the rest. Write and let me know if you want something added--edition after edition, I want to make sure this book stays at the absolute top of the field, the comprehensive one you'll turn to again and again.

Summary: more of a beginner start-off then a reference
Review: This book is, without doubt, the best HTML book I have ever seen. It has gotten me up to date with the latest HTML and also covers many other web related topics and technologies. I would recommend this book to absolutely anyone.

Summary: Very good book
Review: While this book is far from being a complete resource for HTML, I would doubt any book is.
After the first three chapters, I had several web pages complete and am looking forward to the rest of the book. Great place to start for the novice.
