Why another HTML book? The answer is that web development has changed
with the advent of web standards, meaning that many old books are now
obsolete. All the code and techniques contained within this book are
strictly standards compliant and best practice, so the reader is not
taught outdated, bad techniques, and their web pages will work properly
in most web browsers, be lean and small in file size, accessible to web
users with disabilities, and easily located by search engines such as
Google. Beginning HTML with CSS and XHTML uses practical examples to
show readers how to structure data correctly using (X)HTML, and the
basics of styling it and laying it out using Cascading Style Sheets
(CSS, ) and adding dynamic behavior to it using JavaScript...as quickly
as possible. It is also useful to more experienced web developers, with
comprehensive reference tables at the back of the book.
