Good beginning, for Windows users,
This review is from: CliffsNotes Creating Your First Web Page (Paperback)
This book really should have been titled 'Creating your first web page with Microsoft FrontPage Express', emphasizing that the book isn't of much use if you're a Mac or Linux user. I also have a minor quibble that the book implies that you need to install FrontPage Express from the Windows 98 CD - obviously you only need an Internet Explorer CD or download. These points notwithstanding, this is a very good introduction that really will help you design your own webpage. Once you've done that you can then go and learn a bit of HTML, beginning with something like Sams Teach Yourself HTML 4 in 10 minutes, or HTML 4 Made Simple (a British book, see amazon.co.uk website) rather than the mite disappointing CliffsNotes Creating Webpages with HTML.

Quickly Learn Web Page Basics,
By Web Novice (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: CliffsNotes Creating Your First Web Page (Paperback)
This is the best 115 pages that I've read! I didn't have the time to read a 500 page book on creating web pages with HTML 4 or Frontpage 2000. So I bought this book because I could do the exercises in it quickly and it was focused on tools that I already had with Windows98: Microsoft FrontPage Express, Personal Web Server, and the Web Publishing Wizard. After setting up these tools, you'll be off and running learning about text placement, backgrounds, graphics, multimedia, hyperlinks, and tables for an "Orchid Club" home page. And guess what, IT'S FUN, FAST AND EASY. By following the step by step instructions, you'll understand the basic concepts of creating a web page of your own. This book will take you from creating a home page in FrontPage Express, all the way to publishing your page on a Web Server. But beware: you will only be building a very basic web page. This book doesn't attempt to teach detailed HTML, the language behind all web pages. But you can learn HTML from various Internet sites or other books if you are interested. When you are done with this book, you'll have enough knowledge to build your own personal home page and put it on the Internet for everyone to see. From here, you could learn HTML to enhance your web page, or use products like Microsoft FrontPage 2000 to design a more sophisticated web site.

Waaaay too old!,
By Bunmuppie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: CliffsNotes Creating Your First Web Page (Paperback)
Don't waste your money on this book unless you already have, and want to use, FrontPage Express - a program that I could not find anywhere to download. Note that the date the book was published is 1999, which makes it 6 or 7 years old - exceedingly old in cyber terms! I don't know why they are ordering more to sell. No one appears to have anything to say about the book since 2000. Get something newer!
