- Want to learn HTML / Webdesign? Buy this first
I don't do book reviews, never have and never thought I would. Alas, this book has compelled me to write a review hopefully to save others searching the internet for days for the perfect beginners guide to html. I believe if you know how to switch on a computer and do some typing on it and then save it to a folder, your qualified enough to learn HTML. This book is genuinely the best tech guide I've read. By the end of the first chapter you will be looking at professional websites and figuring out how they made them.

- As good an introduction as there is
I build websites for a living and I hand code almost all of the static ones. I bought this book for my wife and worked through it with her, so that she could help with general coding, and was taken back by how well the subject is tackled. It is a fun book that delivers a good depth of information and in a manner that sticks with the reader. I didn't have to supplement any of the explanations with more information, and the book did a far better job than I could have done at explaining the basics.Please understand that this book does not cover every aspect of the subject, and will not make you an advanced web coder, but it will equip you with the ability to design a decent web site and to delve much deeper into the subject without being put off ...

- Excellent learners book for designers and code newbies
Oh I wish I'd bought this book first! I've numerous HTML and CSS books on my shelves, but this is the book for learning just how to. It teaches good practice from the start, providing an excellent foundation for an area that is going to demand cleaner and compliant code.

It isn't a reference book: it's mission is to teach and it does so very well indeed. If you prefer to learn visually and actively, you will find this book particularly engaging.

Buy the pocket O'Reillys for reference, or the O'Reilly CSS and XHTML tomes (which are actually very accessible once you've worked through this book).

- Reaches the parts other books can't
I have just finished working through the book. I've created my first Web Site, and it's validated as XHTML 1.0 Strict with good CSS styling and accessibility! I didn't have had the expertise or confidence to do this previously, but I can do it by hand now with only a text editor (and a little bit of help from the book).

This is my first Head First book. The quirky style helps to get the information into your head and the numerous worked examples give confidence and a reluctance to stop at just ordinary, when extraordinary is not much further along. Top marks!

- Brilliant!
I love this book. I am new to this and bought 3-4 books and this is the one that has helped me the most. It explains the basics claerly, without jargon, and structures the leerning in a way that really suited me. The puzzles and 'interviews' seem irrelevant until you do them and realise later that you have remembered what you learnt from them. Highly recommended for those new to HTML and CSS.
