This title systematically presents HTML markup, beginning with the basics - such as the anatomy of an HTML document text, and links - and continue to the cascading style sheets, JavaScript, and XML. Most of the book is entirely relevant to basic HTML coding without attention to XHTML. Overall specification for HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 Document Type Definition (DTD) are among the appendices. While HTML & XHTML: Guidelines for sure is an excellent tutorial to learn the markup in the right way, is also a superb desktop reference guide to keep nearby for daily use. Plain Topics covered: Basics Markup document structure HTML Text Images Multimedia Links and URL handling Formatted list of Forms Frames Tables Cascading style sheets and JavaScript Applet object Dynamic XML documents XHTML Netscape Layout Extensions
