He's probably best known for his Exam Cram series Certification books, which he originated for the Coriolis Group in 1997, and for which he served as series editor until the end of 2005. His most recent works include short titles on optical networking, clustered computing, and carrier Ethernet, plus recent revisions to his CISSP Study Guide, HTML For Dummies (currently entitled HTML, XHTML, and CSS For Dummies, 6th edition, with co-author Jeff Noble), Windows Server 2008 For Dummies, and Guide to TCP/IP, 3rd edition (lead author: Laura Chappell). Tittel currently writes regularly for numerous TechTarget.com Web sites, for Tom's Hardware and Tom's Guide, for the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), and InformIT.com.

In 1993 Tittel started his own Company, LANWrights Inc., primarily to pursue content development and book publishing projects. In 1997, his company produced 45 computer trade books, and from 1998 to 2004 (the year he left the company, following its sale to Sylvan Ventures in 2000) they produced no less than 55 computer trade books per year. In 2005, LANWrights ceased to exist as a business entity when the Austin division of what was by then known as Thomson NETg (now part of Skillsoft) was finally shut down completely.

This book is definitely "for dummies". I found none of the advanced XHTML programming techniques I was looking for, and there wasn't very many robust tools included with the book. Don't buy this book unless you truly are an idiot.

Not exactly the text that taught me HTML code, but it was definitely a beginner's book that made me able to my way out of any situation.

I learned, once you know this, easy way to hack someone. Now that I have been out of the game for ages. I would have no clue!

I read this first in the late 90s. Still used it for a reference much later on. Has always been helpful.

Very clear and precise for dummies book. I find it a great resource for web design.

There are thirteen varieties of "HTML for Dummies" books. My head hurts.

This is what I used for learning HTML back in 1997.
