Average Customer Review:     
This book is by no means for expert programmer. It is written to explain HTML basics to folks who do not understand web programming. Wendy did a great job to introduce HTML to beginners with his emphasis on important information in this area. I find his writing simple and right to the point. The book does not bother to get into details that could easily confuse his target audience. To some folks who would like to get more HTML details, they should have read the book title before buying. Comparing with other introductory text in this area, this is the best for the beginner folks.
| A brilliant HTML book that is informative, and easy to read. |      | If you're a computer geek that wants complex HTML ramblings that only the few understand, don't buy this book. If you want an HTML book written for the rest of us then get this now! Not only does Wendy guide you through the minefield of HTML jargon by using plain English we can all understand, she also does it in a reassuring way, so you never feel out of your depth. You learn the basics of HTML very quickly in the book and then you are introduced to the more complex features a bit at a time giving the book a nice learning curve. You also get a taster for Javascripts and a bit of advice on things such as content and layout, which is nice. After you have finished reading this book it makes an excellent reference for those bits you always need to lookup thanks to the clear layout and reference tables.
| A quick review of the basics |      | I was looking for a easy to read information guide, that would provide syntax instructions and where to use HTML elements on a webpage. I had very little experience with HTML but had my basic webpage up and running within two days. Invaluable information about tables, forms and frames can be found inside. Added bonuses are the Module's at the end of the book containing quick references and info on special characters. A must read for people that have basic web understanding that want to learn HTML!!
