I remembered bad things about this site, but I just checked and, sure
enough, they are still true.
- Teaches the use of tables for layout.
- Teaches lots of browser-specific 'tricks'.
- Uses deprecated markup instead of CSS within HTML tutorials.

I also looked at htmldog.com, which others have recommended, and I liked
what I saw.
