The acclaimed bestselling visual guide to learning HTML has been updated to cover all the new HTML tags for HTML 4. Perfect for beginners, this book presumes no prior knowledge of HTML or even the Internet.

It uses clear, concise instructions for creating each element of the Web page, from titles and headers to creating links and adding tables, frames, forms, and multimedia. Full-color foldout chart. Also includes all new coverage of working with JavaScripts and Perl scripts.

The first thing that came to my attention when reading this book was the amount of text, gone are the long lengthy paragraphs and over complicated jargon. This style of writing is great, using short paragraphs and bullet points to express important areas accompanied by relevant images to visually depict the steps involved. Because of this it helps improve the rate at which new information can be picked up and applied.

Suitable for beginners taking their first steps into HTML and the more advanced as a reference. Overall this book is definately worthy of a place in any web developer's library.
