I have to agree with the first post. The book treats XHTML (the emerging standard) in asides and parenthetical notes. The section on tables for page layouts is about 4 years out of tune with current W3C recommendations. Please check out alistapart.org and webstandards.org. There are legions of web professionals who take web standards very seriously, and whose mature tools (like Dreamweaver) deserve mention over Microsoft Word, which web professionals avoid like the plague. OReilly's strength has always been providing references for Pros. This book is starting to seem slanted for novices. |
