Learn Advanced HTML 4.0 with DHTML

This book presents a complete immersion in web page creation using the standard HTML language version 4.0, along with an introduction to Dynamic HTML. Author Jose Ramalho begins with an overview of the basics of HTML, such as text and header formatting and lists, and quickly moves to more advanced topics including links, tables, frames, image maps, forms, and style sheets. He then discusses javascript, CGI, and Perl, all of which have certain features that help to circumvent the limitations of the HTML language. The companion CDROM contains the example files discussed in the chapters, along with tools and shareware/freeware to help you create web pages. Among these are HTML Assistant, Body tag, Paint shop pro, Map edit, GIF Animator, and GIF Construction Set. The superfly demo is also included to assist in the development of your DHTML skills.
