This book was a great help in learning web standards HTML coding. It's a bible, affectionately known as the "Hop Book" because of its cover design.

While the techniques might be outdated now, it deepened my understanding of float and position. ■ Product Overview "Practical Web Standards Design: The Basics of Web Standards and CSS Layout & Tips" - Author: Hiroya Ichinose - Publisher: Kyutensha - Softcover: 426 pages - Price: 3,200 yen + tax ■ Table of Contents 1.
