In defense of Dr Burns his tutorials date back to circa 1997 when the
web was a very different place. I bought a copy of the book back then
and it taught me to hand code html; like everyone else I have been
learning ever since. IIRC internet.com bought him out a good few years
ago and he is no longer involved with the site. The site has been
virtually static since which is why it is in the sorry state it is today.
Anyway... a more up to date site that promotes semantic, standard
compliant code is htmldog.com[0].
