 Best Web Comprehensive Book Ever! September 21, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Let me say just that I love "Visual Quickstart Guide" books. They have lots of useful examples in different colors. I don't know what I'd do without "Visual Quickstart Guide" books... I'd be probably cleaning someone's house without them.
I bought this book (456 pages) to teach myself CSS because I'm very much familiar with HTML/XHTML. The book had an excellent CSS section as well as good information of multimedia, mobile, RSS, SEO(Search Engine Optimization) and debugging. It wasn't painful to read this book unlike other books I've read (which are too long to list here).
Both an excellent reference and How-to! March 9, 2007

My background: did some basic html back in 96/97, then promptly left it alone till 2006. This book got me back on my feet and up to date working with CSS in no time.
It is written with mimimal explaination, and the 2 column layout is easy to read/refer to when either reading it front to back, or just refering back to something you forgot. Also helps cover -some- glitches between browsers that was up to date at the time of printing.
Remeber, any web coding book should always be read while looking at the source code of others online to solidify it in your mind. The only time I had a set back with this book was for floating columns, since what I wanted was nothing like her example. Looking online provided the help I need. But obviously I wouldn't have known what to look for without this book :)
I'd say that it is a very approachable book for the beginner.
HTML Excellence February 3, 2006

This is one of the best books out there on HTML. I have been a fan since HTML 4.0 came out. There is not too much NOT covered in this book. A person could become a pro at designing web pages with this information. This author will be on my list ALL the time.
Nicely Done! September 15, 2005
I had almost no HTML experience prior to reading this text. Its an excellent book and I'm now very confident in my abilities with HTML and CSS.I can't say I'm an expert of course, the book explains important HTML and CSS concepts, but practice makes perfect. Explore and try out your own sites. To get the most out of this text, I think you'll need to also dig a bit deeper to check out reference information (some information included appendix of text, and possibly check out w3.org) as well as the website for the book itself. The book has some links to other sites which I think have good examples to study from. Also, there are tons of useful tips on which features aren't correctly supported by certain browsers, most of the time by microsft (big surprise there). Some of the chapters on Javascript, and CGI information isn't great, but its not really the purpose of the book. Its really a bonus that theres at least some introduction for other technologies you can explore.

This book is extremely helpful for those who, like myself, are easily confused and boggled by web help books that assume genius level readers. Using this book as a reference is its most valuable assest to me...it's so easy to look a topic up and find info on it. And the website they give you to see the examples from the book posted live is a big help as well.
