From time to time people ask me how I learned how to hand code HTML and CSS. I learned by reading a bunch of books and from lots of trial an error. Below are a list of books I recommend for someone who wants to start hand coding HTML and CSS. If I was just starting I would start with the HTML Dog book. If I had some coding experience and just wanted to learn proper use of CSS I would pickup the Dan Cederholm books Web Standards Solutions and Bulletproof Web Design.

I think PHP Solutions
