HTML 4 Compressed

by Jakob Jenkov

HTML is one of the three languages (technologies) that is used when developing modern web applications and websites. The other two are CSS and JavaScript.

HTML comes in several versions of which the newest is currently HTML 5. However, HTML 5 builds upon HTML 4, so you will also need to learn HTML 4 to master HTML 5.

Most HTML 5 books don't cover the HTML 4 elements, but only what is new in HTML 5. Therefore I decided to write a book containing only the HTML 4 elements. Developers who do not know HTML 4 already can get up to speed easily, and developers who already know HTML 4 can skip this book.

This book is intended for anyone starting to learn HTML. You don't need any special prerequisites, although a fundamental understanding of the Internet is definitely helpful.
