Customer ReviewsRating: 5 out of 5 I love this book. 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. Rating: 4 out of 5 Great Book! This book is a great way to learn the nuts and bolts of HTML coding. Its visual style is especially suited to HTML because HTML ultimately produces visual results. On the same page, the book presents a given command, the code, and what the visual results will be once the page is viewed. An extremely effective way of teaching HTML........................................... However, the book is not so strong on the design element, and thus is docked one star. For design, look no further than Steve Krug's "Don't Make Me Think" for invaluable design techniques to make your webpage more useable, and thus more effective. Rating: 5 out of 5 Oh so easy to understand! 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!
