HTML Artistry: More Than CodeArdith Ibanez, Natalie Zee
Taschenbuch
Most H T M L books focus on either technical how-to guidance or design advice, but this outstanding full-color book does both, and quite well. Authors Ibanez and Zee first detail core H T M L concepts, including such tasks as using tables and frames in layout; building a coherent navigational system with graphical and text links and headers and footers; working with type and applying type effects; understanding color and the Web palette; and customizing your Web site using Java Script. Next you learn all about working with Dynamic H T M L ( D H T M L), layers, cascading style sheets, interactivity, animations, and transitions. Appendices offer H T M L, style sheet, and D H T M L reference lists. Each chapter includes case studies, sample H T M L code, a summary, and a discussion of cross-platform and cross-browser compatibility issues. You also get profiles of outstanding designers and their work. Even though each chapter builds on the previous ones, any aspiring designer can glean lots of insight just by jumping to any topic in this well-written, well-designed book. < I>- -Kathleen Caster
