New Perspectives on HTML and XHTML: Comprehensive
Tagged with: Comprehensive • HTML • Perspectives • XHTML
Not much to say, I needed this book for an HTML class that I am taking. That being said it is a good book for beginers, if one runs through the tutorials one should be able to build a web page.
This book was listed for sale as either “very good” or ” like new”. When I recieved the book, which at least was in a timely manner, it looked like it had been used as a football. The entire book was extremely worn out. It was almost unusabe for fear of pages falling out. It was shipped WAY underpackaged. The “envelope” that it was shipped in was way too flimsy for a book of this weight. I did not return it because I recieved it just in time to start class. My suggestion? Don’t list a product/item as a better condition than it is actually in. Very tacky!
The Introductory edition of this book is a required text for a web development course I start in a couple weeks. If this “Comprehensive” edition contains all of the Introductory plus 250+ pages of additional info, I will buy it instead.
If it’s different, then the instructor will not be pleased…
(I haven’t seen this book. Rated it because Amazon asked me to.)
The tutorial sections were easy to follow, but the case problems were sometimes hard to understand.
I was impressed about how fast it came to my house and how good it was wrapped. Thank you.
