I have some knowledge of HTML but almost none of CSS, only a little of
Javascript etc. Basically I am looking for a book to solidify my
knowledge of web design technologies. The two books which stood out at
the bookshop today were;
Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML by Freeman
Internet & World Wide Web How to Program by Deitel
Both of these look very good. The second in particular looks
comprehensive with coverage of numerous technologies, while the first
is limited in scope to HTML/XHTML/CSS but it reputedly very clear and
easy to learn from.
My choice would be to buy the Freeman now, work through it to gain
understanding of essentials, then wait until November when the new
Deitel comes out and buy that then to expand my knowledge to other
technologies. What do people think of that strategy? It would involve
some replication of effort since HTML/XHTML/CSS would be covered in
both books, but the Freeman is such a "nice" book and the Deitel
covers so many extra technologies that I think this might be a good
strategy. Anyone read both of these books? Comments?
