Customer Reviews & Comments
The back cover says that this book is for the intermediate/advanced user. From what I've seen that's absolutely correct, because the author obviously feels that a majority of HTML tags and attributes are too trivial for this particular audience. There are a few chapters on Form design, JavaScript and data gathering from forms, but Ann fails to deliver on how to gather data from forms! The JavaScript chapter is useless, it might be novel to enter a number in a text field press a button and that number multiplied by 2 is displayed in another field. Very impressive Ann, but how about something useful like changing the image of a hyperlink as the mouse goes over the region? The first quarter of the book discusses what HTML is, where its going, the history etc. Interesting reading, but nothing to do with writing a webpage. This book doesn't even provide an appendix for the HTML tags or attributes, making it very difficult to use as a reference later on. This book looked promising, even when I was reading through it, however towards the end and when you start writing a webpage you'll soon realise just how much material was missed out. I'm now looking for another book, this time one with an appendix for the HTML tags and attributes.
