As I said at the outset, the amount that can be said about HTML and Web authoring is almost endless; I've only scratched the surface here. Fortunately, there is a huge amount of very good instructional material on HTML available free on the Web.

If you're using Dreamweaver, it comes with a good manual and lots of online reference material.

A physical book that I've found very handy (it's concise and concrete, with brief step-by-step instructions for everything you might want to do):

Castro, Elizabeth (2000). HTML for the world wide web, fourth edition. Berkeley: Peachpit Press.

I've cited a good deal of material from LSWeb. It's definitely worthwhile browsing through their site. The "Web 101" page has some basic information. Before putting up a web page for real, you should check their Webpage Design Guidelines.

They provide some links to external sources at this page. Apparently they have online classes you can take, in addition to the Instructional Computing workshops; I haven't tried these (you have to connect from campus).

A set of very concise, practical guides by Dave Raggett of the W3C (the "World Wide Web Consortium", the body that defines the HTML standard):

Somewhat more technical: NCSA's Beginner's Guide to HTML. (NCSA created Mosaic, the first Web browser.)
