Stephen,

I started as a stark beginner with Molly Holzschlag's book "Using HTML
4, Special Edition" published by Que.  I love it and use it to this day.
Fantastic book.

If you have a moment, can you recommend what you consider the best book
on 
HTML?

Best FREE online tutorial?

Is HTML Goodies any good?

IBM offers tutes for pro developers, too advanced for me.

I've learned a lot of usability theory, had a fair amount of practice 
evaluating sites, even done some IA work, but now need to actually get
in 
there a build some sites from scratch or modify the code of existing
sites.

I want to add Printer Friendly Version and other widgets and functions
in my 
blog sites.

I tried to import a JavaScript/zip file game into a disposable free web 
site, it didn't work. Site went spastic ballistic, I jettisoned it.

Thanks for your assistance.

West Civ has a wonderful set of tutorials on html and css. Currently they
are running the free version of intro to css. The basic html is also
available. They market packages combining various tutorials.

http://www.westciv.com/courses/

And of course there is the venerable Peach Pit publication from Elizabeth
Castro which sems to have morphed a little into:
