Customer Reviews & Comments
If it weren't for the outrageous amount of typos in the examples presented in this book I might not give this book a bad review. It's relatively quick reading, not a bad book if your looking for something to familiarize yourself with HTML and Javascript enough to have a base of reference and to get started. However the code examples seem not to have been proofread. For example on page 139 the example for an anchor that this is repeated in each example on the page, 6 times! On the next don't care if these guys don't know how to spell present, but I feel that 6 incorrect closing tags on one page should have been noticed! This book is consistently sloppy. I'm a little shocked this was allowed to go the press the way it is. The graphic design is a bit hard on the eyes, too.
