Summary: Terrible. . . that's all there is to say about it!
Comment: I was given this book in my Information Technology 3 course, in high school. At the beginning, I was happy to be learning HTML, as I'd always wanted to creat my own website without the editors and such. After a few chapters of the book, however, I changed my mind. The layout is rather inappropriate. Each lesson is the same: They tell you step by step the process of making a webpage. This could be good, if they bothered to explain what they are doing. They plop down codes throughout the text, without giving you more than a sentence explaining their function and useages. In some cases, nothing at all is explained. The beginning of the book is simple, but, by the time you're half finished, they've skipped the rest of the basics and moved on to DHTML. You'd think they'd teach you how to change font colors and background colors before they tell you how to do DHTML.
Overall, I despise the book. It skims the surface, leaving out very basic and important codes and such, while moving too quickly on to the harder areas. There are errors and discrepencies throughotu the book, which makes it even harder to understand. Nothing is explained and, when it comes to the independent study, you have no knowledge to use. They give you useless tasks, such as comparing the coding of 5 different pages in an essay and other [bad] tasks. Do not buy this book.
I'm not as articulate as I could be in this article, but I think you get the jist. The book is complete crud.

Summary: You have got to be kidding
Comment: I dont know how anybody gave this book 5 stars. It must have been the author that reviewed it. I am using this book for a class that I am in. I am an experienced developer, and this has to be the worst html book I have ever seen. The examples are terrible, inconsistent, and they don't teach you anything. Avoid this book at all costs

Summary: extremely confusing
Comment: Whatever you may think when you look at it, and no matter how pretty the pages may seem, it's simply "crap". 1- If you are new to the internet, and you want a simple introduction to HTML, this book will only confuse you with the huge number of errors and inconsistencies it has. 2- If you are good at computers and want to learn HTML, you might, after some struggle, make sense of it and fill in the gaps, but you can get much better, more accurate information about html by simply browsing free tutorials on the internet. 3- If you want to get advanced, this book is definitely not for you either. So, in conclusion, there's no single reason for you to buy this book.
