I think they're pretty good as a reference for people who already know
what they're doing. For example, if you need to check whether the CSS to
capitalise stuff is "text-transform:capitals" or "text-transform:uppercase",
they'll set you straight very quickly (it's the latter IIRC).

As tutorials go though, they're not great. They spend plenty of time
teaching you how you *can* do things, but not how you *should* do things.
Some tutorials are a lot worse than W3schools, but some are better too.

As tutorials I would recommend:

http://htmldog.com/
http://tranchant.plus.com/web/html-tutorial/

I would also love to be able to recommend:

http://tobyinkster.co.uk/html-tutorial

but it is sadly incomplete for now.
