Book Review: Learning Web Design: A Beginner's Guide to HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Web Graphics

Hello readers...
Hope you are fine. Today I am going to review one of the book that is called "


Learning Web Design: A Beginner's Guide to HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Web Graphics" by Jennifer Niederst Robbins which is published by O’Reilly Media in 2007.

Take a short look...

  • Author: Jennifer Niederst Robbins
  • Edition: Third Edition
  • Language : English
  • Publisher: O'Reilly Media

First of all, this is a very very precious book for web designer beginner. I personally believe that, it can play a vital rule to learn web designing to beginner. I would like to suggest to start all the web programmer with this books. However, lets start the reviewing this book...


What it means is that using HTML markup for visual effects is out—HTML for describing the meaning and structure of content is in. Table-based layouts are out—style sheet-driven layouts are in. And the font element, spacer GIFs, and other clever hacks of the past... forget about it! They’re all history. This edition has been completely rewritten to be in compliance with the standards and modern web design practices. The markup chapters emphasize using HTML to describe your content accurately, not as a tool for formatting the appearance of text. And now you will find seven chapters on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), where the second edition had just one. 

But like the first two editions, this book addresses the specific needs and concerns of beginners of all backgrounds, including seasoned graphic designers, programmers looking for a more creative outlet, office assistants, recent college graduates, work-at-home moms, and anyone else wanting to learn how to design web sites. I’ve done my best to put the experience of sitting in my beginner web design class into a book, with exercises and tests along the way, so you get hands-on experience and can check your progress.

There are 12 chapters in this book. The chapters a following below-





01: How the Web Works
02: The Nature of Web Design
03: Creating a Simple Page
04: Marking up Text
05: Adding Links
06: Adding Images
07: Basic Table Markup
08: Forms
09: Understanding the Standards
10: Cascading Style Sheets Orientation
11: Formatting Text
12: Colors and Backgrounds

13: Thinking Inside the Box 
14: Floating and Positioning

The author of this book tries to cover all the stage of web designing shortly. He have done some task from the sketch. So, you can ready this books. It is only about $28 in Amazon book store.  If any one interested to bye this one form amazone, then you can do it.
