Ask HN: Resources for learning HTML
Someone I know wants to learn HTML. What are the best introductory resources to recommend to her? Either books or online are fine.

This is an interesting take on learning things right the first time around (the historyof HTML has been riddled with right and wrong ways to do things).
Since HTML alone doesn't suffice anymore, "Head First HTML, XHTML and CSS" is a pretty good place to get started.
Good Luck!

Thanks for this link. There seem to be quite a few useful articles there.
http://htmldog.com/ wasn't bad as far as I remember.
Be careful with the books, do not pick "old-style" one, which pays no attention to web standards and semantics. I'd recommend "Web Standards Solutions: The Markup and Style Handbook" by Dan Cederholm (http://astore.amazon.com/simplebits-20/detail/1590593812). Not exactly introductory, but worth reading.
I often end up at http://www.w3schools.com/ They have some pretty straighforward examples to get you started.
I think w3schools is the best starting point as well.
However, if you are pretty new at this stuff I'd suggest you also take the time out (if you have not done this already) to get your basic computer knowledge with something like : http://www.academicearth.org/courses/introduction-to-compute...
I highly recommend O'Reilly's Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML.
It's written for learning instead of reference, and focuses on modern best practices. It anticipates and answers most questions a beginner might have.
