Customer Reviews & Comments
If you want to learn about web design, the first step is learning HTML and XHTML. The last official version of HTML (4.1) was released in 1999. In January, 2000, the W3C release XHTML. HTML and XHTML are very similar; XHTML uses the stricter syntax of XML. I have been looking for a book to teach an introductory HTML class. Most books I reviewed were not up-to-date. I really needed a book that did NOT use deprecated tags, that used XHTML syntax, and that introduced cascading style sheets. HTML and XHTML Step-by-Step is the book I have been looking for. The book is very well-organized with plenty of exercises. The explanations are clear. It's a great book to teach yourself HTML and XHTML even if you are a completely new to web design. What is absent is a discussion about cross-browser compatibility. Being a Microsoft Press book, it only addresses IE. If you are using another browser, for example, Firefox, you will find that some of the css code will display differently in other browsers. But this is a basic book and a good web design teacher should be able to point out the differences. There are also a few syntax errors, but they a minimal. On the whole, this a great book to start with if you are learning about web design.
