About the Book

Using Hands-On Practice exercises and Web Site Case Studies to motivate readers, Web Development and Design Foundations with XHTML includes all the necessary lessons to guide students in developing highly effective Web sites. A well-rounded balance of hard skills (such as XHTML, CSS, and JavaScript™) and soft skills (such as accessibility, ethics, e-commerce, and Web site promotion strategies) presents everything beginning Web developers need to know.

In the Fourth Edition, cascading style sheets—now the standard in Web design—are introduced earlier in the text and are then integrated throughout. Ethics and accessibility issues receive increased coverage, and a new Design Activities supplement offers hands-on design projects to supplement those presented in the text.
