HTML - Best Html Book?
I've been trying to find a good book to learn HTML from the beginning, I can't learn from online tutorials because I like having a book infront of me.
My only worry is that all books I find were made 5+ years ago and I fear that the language may have changed since then and that I'll be learning things that are invalid now. Are there any recent books or even books that have been made years ago but are still very valid now? What are your top 5 recommended books for beginners? Thanks a lot. Similar TutorialsAnyone know of an inexpensive and SEO friendly way to display book pages in an online html reader? I am developing a bookstore website where people can read the entire book online before buying, and the option of using an online flash-based PDF reader doesn't work for SEO. In the html format, the books would have to be displayed page by page so people couldn't steal and distribute the entire book easily. Is the only way to do this by programming every page or is there a program, script or compiler that is good for SEO and will do the job cheaply? There are many online libraries that have hundreds of thousands of pages readable online, so how do they do it cheaply? Thanks.

Jeff What's the best book to learn web design please? I was leaning towards the Head First Web Design book but don't like most of the reviews on it even though I love the other Head First books, is this the best book on web design or is there any other[s] that's better? Hi guys, I'm a University student in scotland who has avoided the HTML side of group projects for 2 years now so i feel it is time to catch up. For 3rd year i need to learn some JSP so i feel i should learn the basics and a bit more of HTML. Enough for me to understand syntax of Javascript/JSP implementation. I was wondering if there was a book out there where i could learn HTML/CSS in like say in a time scale of a month. With like an hour or two working on it per day. I can give or take few hours/days. If theres a book in PDF format you can reconmend or some online tutorial please do. As i want to be fluent in the basics of HTML by like 30-40 days time. Much appreciated Thanks James Hello, Could someone recommend a couple of books for me? I'm interested in upping my skills in html/xml/css/javascript etc but am unsure what to purchase. I have: Advanced knowledge of html Moderate knowledge of css Basic knowledge of javascript VERY Basic knowledge of Actionscript 3.0 I was looking into Lynda and Friends of Ed. Thoughts? Hey, this is my first post here in a while and I'm a little rusty on my HTML and CSS, so... I wanted to make a website showcasing a book I am writing. I want it to be interactive, with music playing on different pages and sounds that can plat when certain words are hovered over. I don't want to use flash and want to use minimal Javascript/PHP (none if possible) I won't mind using a service like Scribd, if it allows that kind of customization... I don't need anything fancy, like page turning animations, just the text to appear when the next page is clicked (though it would be nice to keep the user on the same page and the page turn just loads new text...) Is this possible? Are there resources you can point me to? Are there any services that already offer this? Thanks in advance!

But now I noticed that when my pages pull up in the search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN. They still show the old .HTML links?? When they click on the webpages from the search engines results you get error 404 page cannot be found. How can I update the search engines or add code to my page so the search engines will reflect the new .PHP pages. Also it's been over a good week since I've update to .PHP Thank you all in advanced!! Hi, so I'm trying to make this e-mail newsletter. It's entirely images, tables and text. So no javascript, just plain stuff. I tried attaching it as a signiture file and I had trouble sending it. It also didn't come out right. I'm trying to avoid using a software. Its basically just a block of HTML I need to show up as the only content in an email. If you just put HTML into a email text field, it just shows the HTML code in the email as text. Any ideas? As the title states I've been using Microsoft Word 2000 to create my web page but now want to make a simple no frills html HTML document. Is there a simple and quick way to do it ? I know I can simply create a new HTML document and then just copy and paste the links but is there a utility that can do this ? Many thanks Hi everyone, I've been searching around the web trying to find out how I can send using Outlook a html and text email newsletter automatically. I am quite happy creating html only newsletters, and text ones for that matter, but I have been digging and believe that by using multi-part code I can send to both and the recipients email client "allows" whichever version to be displayed - does this sound right? I'm hoping to simply create the html with the relevent mime references and boundaries (dont know what they are but have seen them on enough Google'd pages to know that they mean something!) and then copy and paste into Outlook - the newsletter is only going out to a few people at a time. Any suggestions or advice would be very greatly appreciated. Regards Allan I am still new to the web page world, but the website I originally created (in japanese) was passed on to a programmer. He did a lot of "upgrades" to the site so he says, but he left. Now I am in charge again of re-modeling the site. The problem is I am trying to figure out why there are so many dead links. I have looked up and down the server, but can't find anything. Ok before I confuse anyone else here is what I am talking about. For example this page that I originally made : Code: http://www.discoveryfirm.com/tokushu/index.html cannot be found but if I take of the end: http://www.discoveryfirm.com/tokushu/ the page is there. Now I am trying to fix a lot of dead links, but I cannot figure out what the programmer did to the site. I am still new to all the high-tech features in the web world. Could somebody please explain. i just started working on addicted2ally.com, and for some reason, my index.html is showing the text of the html instead of well, doing it lol helppp!?
