Summary: Great learning tool...
Comment: I had some HTML experience before reading this book. I knew very little about CSS. This book has changed the way I will develop future HTML projects. It was very easy to follow. I would easily recommend this book to my peers.

Summary: Great help in updating my sites ancient HTML
Comment: I've got several hand-coded HTML websites as well as other HTML code (a textbook on CD, for instance). This book was all I needed to upgrade my skills to the latest XHTML and CSS and revise my sites for better appearance.
It's only fault is that it would be nice if it had a quick reference table of all the tags. Now I need to purchase a reference book as well because the book's organization makes it fairly worthless as a reference once you complete the tutorial.

Summary: Now I am a CSS fanatic
Comment: I coded my first web site about 8 months ago. Using Dreamweaver, it was all tables and nested tables and long pages full of code. Around December last year I started reading about CSS. I took the time to read many reviews and opinions and, as you can imagine, they were mixed.
At first I thought that CSS was for designers that except writing books did nothing else. The process of coding with CSS seems long, unnecessary and very difficult. I bought this book determined to get to the bottom of it and now I will never go back to tables.
I am now in the process of fixing my "old" site and creating a new one. It is the best introductory books I have ever read. I am now reading the CSS Mastery (by Andy Budd) and had I not read the Head First book, I would have been lost.
Recommended!!

Summary: Great web basics book
Comment: Very unique and enjoyable read. It's very basic, but even good for someone who already has a good idea of what they're doing with html & css -- fills in all those little blanks on how things work. It's a quick read, although there's a lot of information in there, with entertaining graphics, games, self-tests and humor.

Summary: Fantastic book for HTML beginning learners!
Comment: I've read many beginners books on a variety of technology subjects, but none of them beat this one. From the moment I opened it I knew that I was in for a fun ride. They actually found a unique and exciting way to teach a very dry subject. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn HTML from scratch. Kudos to the authors!
