Summary: Please don't waste your money on this book.
Review: One star is only because i could not leave it blank.I think the mind of the authur was somewher else when she wrote this book . I can't believe a word if any one tell me that they underestand this book . I am a degree student and had more joy with inferia books at the liberary and i am just going to warn people to throw thiere money away and they'll be better off than reading this book .

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Outstanding Quick Reference
Review: As someone who learnt HTML largely by trial and error, this book provided anwsers to many of my questions and helped me introduce some sort of standard to my coding. The information provided on tables and particular browser real estate are invalueble. This book is a must for anyone who wishes to appreciate what comprises good, adequate, or poor HTML coding practice.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent for learning and reference.
Review: This book was so good, I read it from cover to cover as if it was a novel. As a novice web publisher, I was happy to see each subject covered in sufficient detail to get me going, and with many examples. I still use it constantly as a reference.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hot Dang! That's a good reference book!
Review: The O'Reilly folks have their stiff in order. This is a great reference for any front-end web-building you want to do. Pair this with O'Reilly's "Webmaster in a Nutshell" book, and you can do just about anything you want. Good stuff!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A comprehensive and well-organized reference
Review: I want to add my voice to those praising this book. As a full-time web designer, I appreciate having this information close at hand. Criticizing the book for not being more chatty or for not expressing strong opinions misses the point entirely.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Confusing explanations and wishy washy advice.
Review: The author's explanation of a parameter called names includes an example setting the parameter to, what else, "names", as in, names = "Names". Other commands and parameters have no examples with no evident pattern, but generally make it hard for the reader to understand.

The author presents both sides of controversial topics with no indication of which side she is on. It you're going to be an expert, you ought to have an opionion.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very easy to use html reference book.
Review: If you need a quick html reference without having to flip through a lot of pages, this would be the book to get. I find it quite handy when I need to look up an html tag attribute.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book of its kind
Review: This book is without question the best book I have ever seen on web development. It is succinct yet thorough with that perfect balance of detailed explanation and reference. I am so fond of this book that I am even posting this review, which is something I never do.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The edges are already worn.
Review: This is the book I would like to have written. An easy to use reference that contains the details a professional website builder needs. The browser-compatability chart and minimum/maximum window dimension charts were worth the price alone. (I'd already spent about 4 hours trying to put one together before I found this book.)

It's not a tutorial; it's a reference with a lot of explanations. If you're brand new to HTML, you *might* need something more lesson-based, but buy this one, too. Eventually, you're going to use it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Accelerate Your Web Development Project: Read This Book!
Review: We use this book to give both our customers and ourselves a better understanding of all the in's and outs of professional web design. Many web developers create a barrier to entry with complex code and bandwidth hogging graphics, this book gives you a reason not to do that. If you want to gain a quick understanding of how each piece of the web development puzzle impacts both the user experience and business issues you face with potential clients ... I highly recommend you read this book.
