The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Creating Cool Web Pages With Html/Book and Disk':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
As far as a tutorial on basic HTML (HyperText Markup Language) goes, Taylor runs Lemay's "Teach Yourself Web Publishing with HTML in 21 Days" (see reviews) a very close second. The material in this book is clear, well organized, and attractively presented. An odd positioning is the early chapter on URLs (Uniform Resource Locators). This could have been included with or after the chapter on linking, but there are arguments to be made for its placement up front. Taylor then covers basic HTML, text styles, lists, pointers, and multimedia additions. There are some solid pointers on common traps for the novice. More advanced topics are touched on lightly. Netscape extensions get a chapter to themselves, but forms design and HTML+ seem to be last-minute add-ons. As for the "coolness" of your Web presentation, that's up to you. Design is mentioned briefly in random places. The best advice is to be found in the rather ironically named "Announcing Your Site" chapter--which primarily announces a number of existing Web sites on the net. (The sites listed *are* those which link to others around the Web--sometimes for a fee.) copyright Robert M. Slade, 1995
