HTML: The Definitive Guide
They teach you that learning HTML is like learning any other language and that reading a book of rules can only take you so far. Readers begin writing what may be their first Web page just two pages into the book's second chapter. From there on, they provide a wide range of HTML coding to allow readers to learn from good examples. The book includes a handy "cheat sheet" of HTML codes for quick reference.

XHTML 1.1 Strict Starter Page

Published in: HTML

This is the general page template that I usually start with. It has all of the essentials (along with a favicon link - not essential).

Plain TextExpand

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" version="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" xml:lang="en">
	<head>
		<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
		<title>untitled</title>
		<meta name="description" content="content" />
		<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/screen.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
		<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/print.css" type="text/css" media="print" />
		<link rel="Shortcut Icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
	</head>
	<body>
		<div id="header">
