Product Description

Product Description
Now completely updated for the enhanced multimedia, image–mapping, and style sheet capabilities of HTML 4.01, this lively guide reveals the secrets of award–winning Web designersóand shows you, step by step, how to create sticky, state–of–the–art Web sites. The CD–ROM comes with TidyHTML, the award–winning CoffeeCup suite, and other valuable Web design tools. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From the Author
You don't have to be a rocket scientist...
I remember when I started to learn how to write Web pages. It was a nightmare, with precious little documentation. Now we have a plethora of books and reference works, but let's face it, almost all of them are written by people who know how to program but can't communicate their way out of a paper bag. :-)

That's why I wrote the original Creating Cool Web Pages back in 1995, and have since revised it for HTML 3.2, and now again for HTML 4.0. It's been featured in computer book clubs, translated into a half-dozen different languages, and received sterling reviews ever since.

Most importantly, however, some of the best Web site designers - people just like you and me - acknowledge this book as the one that really got them started online.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book for HTML beginners!!, 5 Feb 1999
By A Customer
This book is definitely an excellent HTML book for beginners. I have several HTML books at home, but I found that this book is the best of all. If you are new to HTML, you will surely become a HTML expert after you've read this book, why? 1. Well-explained examples. 2. It covered most of the useful HTML materials. 3. It illustrated some of useful Javascripts, such as onMouseover stuff. Finally, I can use three words to describe this book: "simple but powerful". If you want to learn HTML, this book is definitely the best choice. Give it a shot!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great beginning to intermediate HTML guide!, 25 Jun 1999
By A Customer
For web enthusiasts looking for a great beginning/intermediate book on HTML and webpage authoring, this is the book. I found this book not only easy to read, but also enjoyable. Using lots of exmaples and clear code, Dave discusses the internet and current technology, HTML 4 tags, cascading style sheets, java script, backgrounds, audio, dynamic HTML, registering and page maintenance, and much more. This is by far the best the best starters resource out there I have seen. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well done, easy to read, good level of detail., 20 Jun 1999
By A Customer
Got a really cool site up and running in three days. As an HTML returnie and a professional programmer I wanted a book with lots of code examples, pictures and very few words. This book goes down smooth in just a few days, gets right to the point and is oriented toward accomplishing something immediately. Not a comprehensive HTML reference rather one of the rare breed of technical books that doesn't make you want to blow your brains out with overkill. Excellent use of summary tables at the end of each chapter.
