Using Html [Paperback] tom-savola; Alan Westenbroek and Joseph Heck

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language, which is simply a way of creating linked, graphical documents for publication on the Internet's World Wide Web.

Savola has attempted to produce an encyclopedic collection of information not only about HTML but also about the World Wide Web and its browsers. There's a danger in trying to be everything for everyone, and it shows in this opus. The text is in six broad sections, starting with a survey of the Web and the Internet and going through HTML essentials, forms, and taste to a survey of HTML editors. Six appendixes treat everything from tags to pointers to HTML-intensive servers. Like the book, the CD-ROM includes just about everything Internetish for DOS/Windows, Mac, and Unix. TCP/IP software to graphics viewers to newsreaders are loaded onto the compact disc. It would have made more sense to use the compact disc for practical examples, but that would have required more work than just downloading shareware and freeware. Too bad. Other HTML books, of far less mass than this tome, carry more useful information.
