Description:

As HTML evolves into XML and XMHL, there's a clear need for a book that takes the beginning web programmer from the basics through the most current coding practices. HTML and XHTML: Creating Web Pages does this and more by building a solid knowledge base that allows the creation of industry-compliant code. With a focus on valid HTML tag structures, the book employs the W3 transitional standards, ensuring proper display of your web pages in the maximum number of currently-supported browsers. Online validation of the book's code and the results of the exercises and projects teaches a structured way to write efficient, effective, and technically accurate HTML web pages.
