Building Web Sites All-in-One Desk Reference for Dummies
Building Web Sites All-in-One Desk Reference For Dummies takes a different tact toward covering the process of Web design. The book looks at the topic from a project/goal-focused angle rather than a process angle by dividing into sections covering the steps in a Web design project rather than the tools/technologies.
