  • the whole reason i cant learn HTML and CSS is because they put all this stupid shit in between the learning process, like where to find the notepad editor..wtf??? im trying to learn how to build a website, not opperate windows. i dont think I would venture into web development if I didnt know how to find notepad. Seriously...these tutorials are getting on my nerves, they need to cut out all the bullshit friendly crap and just teach me what I want to learn.

  • Brian. Take a chill pill, my man.

    This book is for absolute beginners and some people don't know what the hell a text editor is, let alone where to find it. That's not you, but it is a lot of people.

    That said, there's an easy answer - skip over the first chapter. Chapter 2 continues right where *you* want it to.

    No single tutorial or book can be perfect for you *and* also be perfect for your mum/cousin/uncle/whatever.

  • I apologize for lashing out like that, its just frustrating, ive been looking up all day long and I couldn't find anything that fits how I learn, ill give your book a try though. Can you buy it at book stores like walden books?

  • You should be able to. I've not heard of Walden books before, but it is distributed in the US by O'Reilly, so if you can get O'Reilly books there, you should be able to pick up a copy in that store. Then you can have a proper flick through and decide if it's what you are after :)

see all

  • the only problem with this video is the background music... whaaaa!!! not necessary. and dusturbing. I like the book. I bought the pdf version. highly reccommendable.

  • Thanks Ian for such a wonderful book. I'm not quite finished with it yet. I'm just starting Chapter 4 "Shaping Up Using CSS." It is a lot of fun to progress through this book and see how the sample website keeps looking cleaner and cleaner. I was not entirely new to HTML & CSS mind you. I did learn some of this many years ago, but I have forgotten a lot of it. So it's nice to have a clean restart with such a great book. I hope there will be a sequel! Thanks again.

  • i need an answer quickly because ima buy a book soon. i really want to learn this.

  • before i make my decision i need to ask which program is more simple html or java i'm a extreme beginner.

  • Ok thanks man !@

  • @flameof2142 Totally. It really is aimed at the complete beginner. It'll be just right for you :)
