Robin Williams provides a helpful guidebook and manual for developing web pages. She has the right amount of text and illustrations to explain the topics covered by this book. ( )

A decent guide to principles of web layout, but the process is getting really out of date. ( )

At it's time it probably would merit at least 4 stars but this edition is very very dated. There's no mention of blogs or wordpress or blogger or even google itself so it's missing a lot of information that would make it more current and some of the styling for a web page is somewhat dated (most people advise forgetting about having a spash screen and and there are other minor things that are no longer industry standard)

It's amazing to read it and realise how things have changed over time. This edition is written for Windows 95 and while the basics are the same currently it's out of date for the most part. ( )

I've read a few books by Robin Williams (though I should like to read some by the other R.Williams) and I always find them full of information. They give me insights into my use of the computer that I had not thought of, or refreshers that I need.

The usefulness to me is apparent as I look back at the book and see how much I dog eared items to search on the web, or need to remember for my work. The book, as the title states is for us non-designers who are building web pages. I have built quite a few and of course I remember what a

is. But to show why it is good to choose one alignment. To use sliced image maps, and so many other items makes this work a needed and cited reference on my shelf. In face I actually had read a few years ago the 2nd edition and had been telling other non-designers to get it. Finding there was a third edition slightly more current (One a year please Robin to keep up with the changes in coding and programs) I thought a reread of parts of 2 and now all of 3 was in order

So, we come down to it. Should you get it. Yes if you are a web page designer, creator, builder. Have anything to do with web pages. Will I or you reread it. Yes again. This is a very useful, well written tome with great examples throughout. Well worth the money, time and effort you will put into it. ( )

This book taught me to use layers and Dreamweaver and honestly without it I would've been screwed for my Sr. Project which was to create a website for a local business. So I'm really grateful to this book for that reason. ( )
