HTML by Example

If you're ready to jump into the world of creating HTML pages, you've found the right book—regardless of your previous experience with programming or the World Wide Web. That's because HTML by Example uses a "hands-on" approach to creating Web pages that will make learning HTML a pleasure.

Forget about tired reference manuals or overly technical treatises that make HTML actually seem difficult. It's not! If you've got a text editor in DOS, Windows, OS/2, Mac, or a UNIX variant, the only other tool you need is this book. Now you're ready to create your presence on the Web.

**What's the by Example Advantage?**

There are two major reasons why learning HTML is easier when it's by Example. First, HTML isn't a typical programming language—in fact, it isn't a programming language at all. It's a "mark-up" language that builds on very basic concepts that are all somewhat related to one another. Learning by example, then, allows you to start with the initial concepts and learn to build to make complex Web pages come to life easily.

Second, with the included CD-ROM, HTML by Example gives you a major headstart in Web creation. Why? Because if you see an example that's similar to what you want to create, just copy the example from the CD and alter it to suit your needs. It's possible to have a Web page created within minutes of finding a suitable example! Just copy and paste.

Who Should Use This Book?

Before you get to the point of actually creating HTML documents (Web pages), you'll go through a little refresher course on the Internet and the World Wide Web. So, even if you're not terribly familiar with the Web, I'll try to get you there before throwing any strange codes or address at you.

Essentially, all you need to use this book is a rudimentary grasp of the Internet and Web, and a desire to create your own presence. If you've just "heard" of the Web, or even if you've been surfing for a while and want to know more about Web page creation, you've found the right book.

Programmers and graphic artists will also find this book useful for making the transition to the Web—although I should make the point that Web design is not in any way as complicated or cerebral as programming. For the basics (and even for the best looking Web pages), no programming expertise is required. Later in this book, you'll learn how to make your pages "cutting-edge" with emerging tools like JavaScript. But even for that, programming is not a prerequisite.
