About this title

Synopsis

Sams Teach Yourself HTML 4 in 24 Hours, Third Edition is a carefully organized tutorial that teaches the beginning Web page author just what he needs to know in order to get a Web page up in the shortest time possible. The book covers only those HTML tags and technologies that are likely to be used on a beginner's Web page, and is organized in a logical step-by-step order. This book is the market-leading HTML and Web publishing tutorial. Additionally, the entire book will be fully compliant with the final HTML 4 specification, and coverage of developing technologies like Cascading Style Sheets 2 (CSS2) and Dynamic HTML will be completely integrated into the main body of the text.

Review

If you want to get up to speed with HTML 4 quickly, Sams Teach Yourself HTML 4 in 24 Hours is a great way to achieve your ambitious goal. This title sheds all extraneous material and presents a complete HTML 4 tutorial in 24 hour-long lessons.

The first four hours of study serve to bring you up to speed with a basic understanding of the Web's architecture--even if you are entirely new to Web-page design. The author introduces you to Web pages, shows you how to look at the source of any page on the Web, and explains how to publish to a Web server.

The book moves on with four chapters on presenting Web-page text and four more on implementing graphics. After laying an HTML foundation, the author discusses general Web-page design issues and introduces you to multimedia components and even Dynamic HTML--a rather advanced topic. The tutorial wraps up with chapters on presenting, managing, and promoting your Web site and offers you a peek into the future of HTML.

Throughout this book, generous language-reference tables and screen shots, as well as exercises, chapter summaries and review questions help you gauge your knowledge. This well-organised introduction impressively demystifies Web design. --Stephen W. Plain
