HTML (1998) by Thomas A. Powell & Dan Whitworth
Published by Osborne/McGraw-Hill | Unearthed by Crappy Old Books

Before HTML5, before responsive design, before anyone knew what "semantic web" meant—there was HTML (1998). This glorious time capsule from the days of Netscape Navigator and dial-up connections is your comprehensive guide to building cutting-edge websites... for the late ’90s.

Written by Thomas A. Powell and Dan Whitworth, this relic covers everything from tags to framesets and table-based layouts in painstaking detail. It’s packed with charmingly obsolete advice, retro screenshots, and the kind of code that would give modern developers night sweats.

Whether you’re a nostalgic web archaeologist, a collector of vintage tech guides, or just need something ironic for your shelf, HTML (1998) is the perfect tribute to a simpler, cruder, and painfully slow internet.

I even learnt something for the first time, the tag, but then found it was depreciated in HTML5 (doh), but then learnt that does the same thing, so there you go, well worth buying.

Slight tear on inner page like someone tried to unpeel a stick and tore a bit of the inner page off. Otherwise like new.
