Excellent book for what it is meant for ... - 2006-07-27
Reviewer Rating:
This book does exactly what it says -- it gives you little 10 minute lessons into HTML, XHTML, and CSS. If you want to delve in deep, you'll have to get some more comprehensive books.

The lessons are pretty straightforward and you'll be surprised (I was) on how the code can be slightly changed to meet your own specific needs. I now have a good basic understanding of HTML where before I had only a minimal understanding.

If nothing else, the book and appendices make a great quick reference guide. And the price is sure hard to beat.

I love this book as an intro, but there were a few typos that tripped me up as I followed the examples: for instance, the linked styles tag on page 44 is missing the slash at the end, so it should read ".../css"/>" instead of ".../css">". Also, the screen shots are rather small and hard to read. Otherwise it's a great book, very lean and clear, with references to useful websites.

I needed this for a class. Don't believe the title. Each lesson is only 10 minutes if you are a speed reader AND a geek. Not me. This class is a prerequisite for CAD. It's a good book if that's your sort of thing.

straightforward and easy to understand - 2007-11-15

I like the book as it is easy and covers most of my basic HTML needs. Of course the title is misleading, since any book can be read chapter by chapter dedicating ten minutes each, but I never expected to learn HTML in ten minutes anyway. AdventureImagery.com
