An outstanding resource, not only for learning HTML and CSS, but also for setting you on the path to becoming a true web designer.
My frustration with CSS is now gone after I found some answers in this book that I couldn’t find anywhere else.
A great resource. Covers all the aspects of a web page from design to development to publishing.
A rare book at the juncture of web design and development. It keeps in mind the interests of novice designers and developers.
