Customer Reviews & Comments
Despite recent reviews this is a book I plug wherever I go (and that gets much borrowed from other programmers when I am onsite). It is an excellent reference to HTML v.4.x. Organization is the only complaint: Instead of truely encyclopdic it is broken into seven categories like: General-Purpose Elements, Special Characters, Table Elements, Form Elements, etc. I don't even bother with this I go directly to the index and find what I need. Saves time (but I agree you really shouldn't have to do this). However, the examples are very good and the coverage is excellent. Well worth picking up a copy. Don't let the title fool you into thinking that you will learn HTML from it, this is a reference not a teaching book.
