Review: If you wan't to learn how to build a web page, this is the place to start. Lots of good tips plus the basic concepts are explained well. It does a nice job of teaching and doubling as a reference book.

Summary: OK could do better
Review: As a whole it's not a bad book for an area that can get quite complex, but it really ticks me off that all reference's to the accompanying online site give the same URL, which is a pain when there are many sub pages that you would like to go directly to. Maybe as a whole a little too basic.

Summary: Best HTML book for everyone
Review: I read this book a few years ago when I knew nothing of HTML and it was an amazing experience. I read this book in the car on a 14 hour trip and on that 14th hour, I was already an intermediate HTML programmer. The book is broken down into 24 chapters that are each very detailed and smooth. Reading this book was almost like watching a good movie. After every chapter, I found myself wanting more. It was very hard to put this book down because it was exactly what I needed. My goal was to understand the concepts of HTML and to make very good and detailed websites. This book does it all. After I read this book, I immediately pulled up a plain text file and started typing in some code. Within a few minutes, I already had a full-blown webpage with images, tables,a centered header, and even an e-mail form (that did not include any CGI). After every chapter there are questions and answers about everything that was discussed. That helped me understand everything more and kept me from getting lost. In conclusion, if you want to be on your way with making awesome websites, this book is worth the price and worth 24 hours of your time.

Summary: The one and only Basic HTML Book
Review: I searched high and low, paid gazillions of dollars on books and courses, they are all tough, expensive and difficult. Sams Teach Yourself Html 4 in 24 Hours is the best book I found.
It's easy to understand, gets you everywhere you want in HTML, gives you a free loaded practice web site, and it's inexpensive. The author has done a superb job.
If you are already acquainted with HTML and want to delve into it deeper, I would not recommend this book. If you're just about to learn html, get this book! You don't need anything else, trust me, it's the best!

Summary: All You Need
Review: This book has ALL you need to learn HTML.It goes step by step on how to create pages, when and how to use tags. There is probably no other book better than this to learn HTML. From the first webpage to creating forms to advanced table creating techniques, this book is filled with the basics of HTML coding. If you are planning on doing web design or web programming, knowing HTML is a must. Without it, you wouldn't have any idea on where to go and what is being done. This book is simply one of the best buys out there. For the list price that's mentioned, how could you go wrong? I wish I could say more but this book is ALL you really need. Just buy it.

Summary: Best Absolute Beginners Guide to HTML
Review: Dick Oliver presents us with nothing but practical information on HTML in his book, "Sams Teach Yourself Html 4 in 24 Hours." He starts the book out with an introduction to HTML, what it stands for and how one uses it. Then, he moves on to basic manipulation techniques of words and characters within webpages, such as techniques on how to give a word or phrase a boldface type and how to change the font color of a word or phrase. Oliver goes into details with the more advanced techniques of HTML, such as using frames, tables, and layers. He also touches on a good deal of Javascript. Within 24 hours, a good reader and student should be able to learn everything they need to know on making webpages and websites by hand. Although software, such as, Microsoft Frontpage, makes it possible for you to design good webpages without knowing the basics of HTML, you would feel prouder knowing that you understand the coding that these website building software produce....to go along with this book.
