3.0 out of 5 stars Old School Web Design - Table Layouts , 22 Dec 2006
By Mr. D. Bilson "Information Junkie." (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is a course book for Open University Course TT280 - Basic Web Design.
The book covers CSS to a very basic level and advocates using tables for layout. The book doesn't even cover a CSS layout.

The book even discusses how to create a navigation nar using sliced up graphics and table cells. Yes this book was written in 2005!!

Some good information, but i started the OU course to learn something new, not just go over old material.

5.0 out of 5 stars Updated edition excellent, 13 Mar 2009
By Alycya Jane (Surrey, England) - See all my reviews
The fourth edition of this book has now been updated to include much more on CSS. Yes, it presents tables as a layout option but stresses that these are now giving way to CSS. It also uses XHTML standards for all the coding exercises. The theory on web design is also excellent, as are the exercises and review questions through the book. It is the set text on my OU course on web applications and I have also used it as a reference when planning my lessons (I'm an IT teacher at a 6th form college).

I find it very well written and laid out, and the coding exercises are easy to follow. It also stresses the importance of planning before coding and covers different navigation structures and good design principles. The XHTML and CSS references in the appendices are particularly useful when coding - I refer to it frequently to help students with their coding.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good overview, 6 Jul 2008
Yes this book is used on the open university course, and yes it may go over things that certain people may have learnt before. But for a great overview of web design for beginners to intermidiates its not that bad, and in a world that changes as quickly as the world wide web you cannot expect a book to be up to date. This book got me through the OU course TT280 and I have been refering back to it for the sunsequent courses I have taken. I wasn't a total novice in coming to this book, but there is no harm in going over the basics again and its nice to have something to refer back to.
It wouldn't be chosen as a text book if it wasn't any good!
