Beginning HTML with CSS and XHTML - David Schultz

Why another HTML book? Web development has changed with the advent of web standards, rendering older books obsolete. The code and techniques in this book are strictly standards compliant, so readers' web pages will work properly in most web browsers, be lean and small in file size, accessible to web users with disabilities, and easily located by search engines such as Google. The book uses practical examples to show how to structure data correctly using (X)HTML, the basics of styling it and laying it out using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS,) and adding dynamic behavior to it using JavaScript - all as quickly as possible.
