HTML: The Complete Reference, Second Edition is a comprehensive, all-in-one reference for all levels of HTML developers. It combines theory, tutorials, reference material, and extensive examples. The first edition of HTML: The Complete Reference was the perfect one-stop guide to both the theory and practice of HTML — and now this second edition has new coverage of XML, CSS, 4.0 browser tags, and plenty more. Build and design dynamic, fully-functional Web sites with this comprehensive guide. You'll learn how to create compelling, cross-platform Web pages, understand the functions of the individual tags, and learn which tags to use for which environment. All of the practical examples included are updated to work with Netscape Navigator 6 and Internet Explorer 5.5. You'll also get an introduction to server-and client-side programming using JavaScript, Java, ActiveX, plug-ins, and popular server-side technologies such as ColdFusion, ASP, and CGI. Preview more advanced topics, including the DOM, XML, and XSL. It is straightforward, fact-packed, and instructive. It offers hands-on tutorials for virtually every key HTML technique, including client-and server-side interactivity with DHTML; forms, scripts, and plug-ins; even designing for WebTV compatibility. For quick access, it contains an exceptionally detailed, easy-to-use alphabetical reference covering every HTML tag, browser, color/Hex value, color name, ISO Latin-1 characters, fonts, CSS stylesheets, and hyperlinks — with all the 4.0 information highlighted for instant access. The book is based on Powell's hugely-popular Internet courses at the University of California extension, and it's as real-world as you can get. Powell is an excellent web designer who's built sites from the mom-and-pop-shop to the enterprise. |
