- A brief, if not perfect, introduction to the topic.
I am currently using this book as a text in a course I teach. Xhtml is a minor component of the course material and as such, this is a good text. There are good examples and references to important web sites. It covers all of the basics.

Being small (yet pricey), this book doesn't spend a lot of time on web design and it is not a particularly good reference manual. As another reviewer wrote, there are a few errors in it.

But, if you want to get your feet wet, take the book, read it carefully, duplicate all of the examples get them to work. If you do this, you'll have a good solid start in the subject matter.

The errors start on page 9. Gross errors such as Cheryl M. Hughes stating that, a "paragraph

An paragraph must always have a start tag

I won't go on because the following errors are just as gross. I found out about
the errors through the instructor. So I ask how does a 196 page glossy, visual, colour
book come up to 41.38 plus tax. Why does the college promote it? Sam's Xhtml you can get
for 40 to 60 dollars and is about 500 pages long. Who's in cohoots with whom.
I am not throwing this money away and I'll be asking for a refund from the ... Read More
