Product Description

Book Description
This new 5th edition of HTML in easy steps instructs you how to create web pages using the latest HTML 4.01 specifications and Microsoft Internet Explorer 7. It contains separate chapters on all major features of HyperText Markup Language (HTML) and Cascading Stylesheets (CSS). There are code examples and browser screenshots that illustrate each aspect of HTML.

HTML in easy steps begins by examining the evolution of HTML then explains the basic structure of a modern HTML document. The book describes how to incorporate information about a document within its 'head' section before moving on to demonstrate how to add its 'body' content. This includes text, images, lists, tables, hyperlinks, submission forms, and multimedia with Windows Media Player, Java Applets, Flash movies, Real Player and QuickTime. Many examples are provided showing how Cascading Stylesheets can be used to control the appearance of the document content. You need have no previous knowledge of any markup language so it's ideal if you're a newcomer to web pages. Each chapter builds your knowledge of HTML. By the end of this book you will have gained a sound understanding of HTML and be able to create your own interactive web pages which you can upload to a web server for display on the Internet.

HTML in easy steps has an easy-to-follow style that will appeal to anyone who wants to begin writing web pages. It will appeal to programmers who want to quickly learn the latest HTML techniques, and to the student who is studying website design at school or college, and to those seeking a career in web development who need a thorough understanding of HTML.

From the Publisher
Whether you want to get to grips with Windows, Photoshop or even a programming language, these easy-to-follow guides are the perfect companion for fast and productive learning.

This successful series is designed to save you time and guaranteed to give you value for money. Written in a jargon-free, easy-to-follow style with helpful graphics, the In Easy Steps books explain everything you need to know to get working on your computer - and more!

Each chapter takes you step-by-step through the functions and uses of a program. Every page is packed with visual guides so that what you see on your screen is exactly the same in the book - you simply can't go wrong!

5.0 out of 5 stars HTML is sooo easy with easy steps, 28 Nov 2003
By michael (romford, essex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: HTML in Easy Steps (Paperback)
As part of a new job, I was tasked with taking over the development of my companies(a small Charity) web site. They had previously had some 'professional' help, but the guy was unreliable at keeping dates, and often just uncontactable. How hard could it be I thought to myself. Well, I had a popular web design package and cracked on. But just couldn't get it to do what I wanted and where I wanted. I tried looking at what the previous guy had done, but it made no sense. I had previously got the Easy Steps guides to 'Web Page design' & 'Creating Web Pages' but excellent though they were, they didn't go into enough detail on the code etc. I visited my library and borrowed a HTML book, which was unfortunately by another publisher, and it was rubbish. It glossed over the basics and didn't explain anything, just thrusting code at me. I decided to get the Easy Steps book on HTML, and what a revelation. After only a few hours I was able to make alterations to the web site, and a week later I had effectively re-written the whole thing, spending less and less time on the web design page and more and more on the HTML page.
I cannot recommend this book more, to someone who is either starting out or relatively new to web design, I have now proceeded on to the Easy Steps books for Javascript and Java, and will stick with this range which, after having tried several other similar ranges, I have decided is by far the best out there.
In summary, this book (and other in the Easy Steps range) are well written, logical and informative, faultless!
It does exactly what it says on the cover...........

5.0 out of 5 stars Best introductory HTML book, 30 April 2008
By A. J. HAWKEN "Tony Hawken" (London - UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This, in my opinion is the best introductory guide to HTML that I have seen. I have been using HTML for a while, and have in fact taught HTML on an Access to HE course. Even so, there were a number of things that were new to me. As a consequence, I checked all my HTML books, many of them far bigger than this, and found that I could not find these topics. I can only conclude that the book is right up-to-date.


What I like is the clear presentation, and the modern emphasis of doing everything in a style-sheet if at all possible.

Each topic is broken up into simple chunks / steps that last for 1 or 2 pages. There are nice simple examples that involve a few lines of code, a very clear explanation and a screen-dump depicting what you would expect to see on the screen.

I only wish I had this book a number of years ago. I certainly could have put together a better HTML course if I had.
