Some more websites that may be of use to you...

HTML Goodies

HTML Goodies is a great resource packed with information and tutorials on all aspects of web design. As well as bog-standard HTML you'll find information on JavaScript and Perl, and there are updates all the time. Well worth a visit.

Web Tutor

This excellent HTML tutorial from Joe Barta is well known on the Internet for its simplicity. It takes you through each section in detail with a wealth of examples to make everything crystal clear. You can even download the entire tutorial for offline reading (there is a fee for access to some parts of this site). Now also includes Javascript tutorial.

WebReview

Slightly more business orientated, WebReview again offers information on many aspects of HTML (I found their CSS information invaluable). Everything is very well organised as well, so it's easy to find what you're looking for.

CNET Builder.com

Perhaps one of CNET's poorer offerings, Builder.com nevertheless has a lot available. Articles from a range of sources are indexed to provide a searchable database which can be useful if you've got a specific query. Usenet articles are also searched, broadening the knowledge base considerably.

ZDNET Developer

Well-known for its deownload site, ZDNET has put a lot of work into its developer's area. Amongst the very well organised pages you'll find tag libraries (listing attributes), an HTML validator and tutorials and articles to help you design and build your site.

HTML Help

Another HTML pick 'n' mix site, with tutorials, tools (including code validator) and more general design tips.

Ashley Brown.co.uk

My good friend Ashley's site includes a vast HTML tag reference tool (it covers more than I could ever hope to!) as well as some articles related to web design.

Javascripts.com

From the same network of sites that brought you HTML Goodies, Javascripts.com is a great resource for all types of scripts. There are scripts for a wide variety of tasks (organised into distinct categories) which can be copied and used free of charge. Whatever you want to do, there's probably a script to do it!

Java Boutique

Java apps are small programs that can run within webpages, basically a much bigger brother to JavaScript. This site has hundreds of useful applications available for free use - browse around the categories or just find out what's popular and you're certain to find something that you can use. Just don't put too many on your pages, or they'll start to grind!

World Wide Web Consortium

The W3C is the body which defines what HTML is and isn't valid. It decides what tags to create and remove in each version of the language and also governs the rules of CSS, XML and other web-based languages. You can read the official specifications, although somewhat complicated, or run your code through the official W3C validator and get recommendations for improvements.

Search Engine Watch

This site offers advice on gettin your site listed on the major internet search engines. Registering will provide additional content, but anyone can access the basics.
