Re: Book or tutorial for strict HTML

I'd like a recommendation for a good tutorial or book that teaches standard
HTML. Thank you.

I only know _one_ book that I regard as acceptable in this respect,
and no web sites.
"Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML", O'Reilly

(By this I mean that it's a tutorial, it's well written, it has an
appropriate attitude to HTML 4.01 Strict vs. 3.2, Transitional or
XHTML, and it teaches good coding style)

Followed by Lie & Bos' "Cascading Style Sheets" book (CSS tutorial and
on-going reference)

Also of course, the W3C site for the "horse's mouth" version of the
HTML recommendation and DTD.
