  HTML is the universal language for presenting content on the web, and if you're not a programmer, learning HTML is far from intuitive. As the online population grows exponentially, more and more new users want to create their own sites, too. A substantial portion of the new users are NOT technology oriented, and they need a book that speaks specifically to them. How to Do Everything with HTML integrates instruction and exercises into a progressive learning experience for the reader, and teaches the necessary tools for building a website. From creating a basic HTML document to using JavaScript and DHTML for interactivity to creating forms for visitor feedback, this book offers it all and makes web authoring accessible for everyone. Structured and written for a non-technical audience, the content is comprehensive - it begins with basic HTML and progresses to more difficult concepts so that intermediate website builders wil be challenged to take their website building skills to new levels. The book presents the more complex aspects of web authoring (CGI, JavaScript, DHTML etc) in focused tasks, rather than requiring this non-technical audience to understand all the complexities of programming. It also gets the reader up to speed with CSS (cascading style sheets) by integrating CSS instruction into every chapter. CSS are new features being added to HTML that gives both website developers and users more control over how pages are displayed and multiple style sheets can be applied to the same web page. The book also prepares readers for the future of the Web by training them to write XML-compliant pages.
