Practical Visual HTML 4 is a straight forward, no-nonsense approach to creating web pages using HTML. Using practical advice and techniques that are used in the real world, it will help readers create web pages quickly and with minimum fuss. Practical HTML 4 has task-oriented, easy-to-navigate tutorials and reference information presented in a logical progression from simple to complex tasks. The book begins on the basics of creating web pages and has the user create basic pages. It moves on to adding images and multimedia to your sites. Next is a section on how to control the presentation of your site using Cascading Style Sheets, Tables, and Frames. The second half of the book moves into more advanced topics, starting with Interactivity and Dynamic HTML. It then shows how to market your site and how to get the most out of your efforts and design. Appendixes proved a quick reference to the HTML language, Cascading Style Sheets, Web color, and Web entities and characters.

If the reader has never seen C++ or Java before I don't know how...

Good Starting Point for Beginners

By Thriftbooks.com User, March 2, 2000

With close to 700 pages you'd think you were taking on a task that was next to astronomical but I assure you, you'll have fun learning with this...
