HTML - Which Books Should I Order Next?

I need a book.

More specifically to explain my situation:

The "guy who does the web site" in work is leaving us in the next week or two. He and his mate (who knows HTML!) set up the company's websites (three of them I think) ages ago, and have been maintaining them since. While he offers to help with the upkeep, it may be classed as a "clash of interests" by the company he's joining, so being the next "least technically challenged" in the office, I've been asked to step into his shoes.

I've never done any web design, just some fortran and one or two other programming languages that I don't remember, so probably won't help. I'm pretty quick to learn, and think I'm starting to make some sense of the code that has landed in front of me by reading through it and referring to various internet sites. Whilst this may seem backward, I find that having a real book in front of me for reference is infinitely better than having to switch tabs/windows to get help.

I'll definitely be referring to the stickies on this subject, but when it comes to RTFM I want to get TFM

What would anyone recommend to get as a reference/learning tool that might get me able to proficiently update the websites by april (when the pay reviews are due :smoke: )?

I'm attempting to teach myself code, HTML to be specific...

Ive' had a very good interest in coding for some time now but never had to oppitunity to actually sit down and think.

Does anyone have any recomendations of books ?
I'm currenently reading a e-bbok which takes me throught the steps but was published in 2004, Would that be any help what so ever ?

I have no specific use for coding, well none what so ever. Would HTML allow me to write a website for most web browsers ?

Any/All help is needed

Hey, so I want to learn html and I was just wondering what books you guys would suggest starting out with?

Hello guys,

i was wondering if any of you knows of :Some sort of book with html tests.
Like in math where there are lots of tests and problem books , is there any place where we can find/buy/download HTML test books?

Thanks in advance for your answers and since is almost the last day of the year i will rush in wishing you all HAPPY NEW YEAR!

All the books I've seen are targeted at either newbies, experienced, or expert users. All I want is a reference that shows all the tags and all the formatting options. For example:

Table
<table></table>
Table options
<table style class height width border colspacing padding>

Table row
<tr></tr>
Table row options
<tr ..... >

Table data
<td></td>
Table data options
<td ..... >

See? For every avaliable tag. I just need a reference, not code, nor how to's. Just a reference to the tags and parms they can take.

If you know of a book title that covers this, please indicate.

Thanks!

Hi. I have lots of giff images on a web page. Problem is my drop down menu wants to drop down behind the image. Is there a way of forcing the menu on top of the images.

Alright so in what order should I learn the basic things of web design? I want a really cool site that look professional. So basically I want to learn HTML, XHTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT, and PHP. What order should I learn those? Is that knowledge enough to make a stunning website?


----------------------

i need order list with brakets like:-

( i ) abc

( ii ) def

thankx budiesssss

i have a drop down list which when activated gets covered by another object on the site, is there anything that can be done to fix this visual order problem....

p.s. the blocking object is an image as well as a form dropdownlist (ddl).

Does the order of laoding HTML,CSS,javascript files etc depends upon the rendering engine ? or they generally follow a common order.

What is the best place to link a javascript file ?

Hi,

how can I rearrange items by name or genre?
I want to make a sort of collection for a few movies, with information about actors and so on.
I have the information for each movie in a div tag. What do I have to do so that when I click, let's say on name, it lists the movies alphabetically?

Is there any solution for this? Or generally how would you do this?

Thank you.

I'm trying to impliment a work order system on my website, and example can be seen here of the work order system beta i'm working on,

http://www.army.mil/oldguard/workorder/pworkorder.htm

I need to be able to assign a work order number automatically that will not only go in the e-mail that flexmail sends out from the form, but also lets the user know what their work order number will be. Also, the work order number should not increase unless there is a successful form submission.

The army is paranoid so we have no access to asp, php, perl, or cgi on the server, has to all be done with ajax, javascript, and html.

The only other 3rd party software is felxmail and all it handles is the sending of the information fed to it via e-mail.

Thank for any help you can provide.

Hi.

I have a javascript script which slides a slider when you click on text or image. However when I click it, it slides down together with the div tag below it (there are total of 5 images which should be in one line and slide a box under them when clicked).

Here is my code:

Code:

<div class="slider1"><img src="big_button1.png" /><div class="x">
text text text</div></div>
<div class="slider2"><img src="big_button2.png" /><div class="xx">
text text text</div></div>
<div class="slider3"><img src="big_button3.png" /><div class="xxx">
text text text</div></div>
<div class="slider4"><img src="big_button4.png" /><div class="xxxx">
text text text</div></div>
<div class="slider5"><img src="big_button5.png" /><div class="xxxxx">
text text text</div></div>

And if you didn't understood what is happening and what I want to do, here is an image. Feel free to ask if you still don't get it:
