I was thinking of learning html and i wanted to know if you can learn it from a back and if anyone knows any good books on the subject
I suggest acquiring a web editor, like Frontpage (MS, costs), it can be easier and you can learn that way too, by checking the HTML-code.
Try HTML for dummies and using frontpage and or macromedia or similar program. It's quite easy to learn once you get into it.
Yeah, i'll follow the trend and say get HTML for Dummies, should introduce you to alot of the subject, I have it myself. I would Highly reccomend you learn the in and outs of HTML, and get very good in it, before you spoil yourself with Frontpage![]()

Yeah, basic HTML is very easy to learn, it took me like three days in college. You dont need any special programs, just open up notepad and put the tags <html> at the very top of your page then </html> in the very bottom of your page. There is more tags than that, but for a basic website there is nothing complicated that you really need to learn.

I got a book for XHTML & CSS and spent a week or two reading. HTML is incredibly simple to learn.
The Complete Reference XHTML and HTML by Thomas A. Powell (fourth edition). It includes XHTML and CSS2 with a light flavoring of other stuff (XML, HTTP, Web servers, small sections on PHP, ColdFusion, Perl)
It's a hefty book, but that's mostly due to its HUGE appendices (it has the DTDs for HTML 4.01, XHTML transitional, etc plus all the html tags and their associated attributes and css selectors and their properties).
Got it at Barnes and Noble. I also got a Javascript book by the same author in the same series.
its client side scripting, basically a cut down loosely typed scripting language, based on java that is interpreted and run in a browser. designed to add basic interactivity to web page. for most things, I find PHP is a better alternitive, as server side scripting adds more control.Originally Posted by hunter260859

The W3C (world wide web consortium) is for official documentation on xhtml and css, not tutorial iirc.
