This book may be well written for younger folk entering the world of web design, but that's still no excuse for teaching the bad old ways of building web pages. There should be no place for font tags and table-layout in any modern webdesign book. And no mention of CSS defies belief. It is vitally important that new entrants in the world of web design - regardless of how young or old they are - are taught the correct way to build websites, ie. the application and philosophy of semantic HTML and Web Standards.I would definitely recommend all people learning to build websites for the first time to buy Ian Lloyd's Build Your Own Website The Right Way Using HTML & CSS instead.
This book is excellent for kids or anyone wanting to build simple Web sites first time!I am over 50 first-timer on building Web sites with HTML.First, I was working with Hebrew version of the book and got bogged down with its too technical style and poor quality illustrations. I checked on the author's name and remembered that I bought the English copy last year.Volia! I found the English copy. The book cheered me up with its colorful, clean and clear style with so many excellent illustrations and examples. So easy, I was able to finish building a simple Web site in 3 nights in Part I. Part II on Web hosting is a great and clear help for beginners.It would be nice if a brief glossary on HTML tags and safe Web colors chart to be added as appendixes. A brief explaination on XHTML rules in beginning would be helpful. Also, colors of link tag should be explained too.My 6 year old son, Shai is starting to build his personal Web site with the help of this book and his Dad.Yes, I do heartly recommend this book to any kids or anyone wanting to build simple Web sites first time in short time. Many thanks to Zohar (the author)!
