As promised, this tutorial has provided an introduction to HTML. This means that there is a lot more to the language than was covered in the preceding seven chapters -- tables, the future of HTML, and so on.

It is my hope that you found this HTML tutorial easy to read and understand, and that now that you've finished it, you feel ready to start creating Web documents. If this is not the case, please let me know where improvements can be made by writing me. As I said in the Introduction, I can't promise that I'll use your suggestions, but I will read and consider everything you send me.

Incidentally, one last tip, in case you didn't already know: most current browsers give you the option to "View Source." For example, in Netscape, you would select the "View" menu and then the option "Source..." which will bring up the actual HTML document you've been looking at. This can be an invaluable aid to learning HTML, because you can teach yourself with real-world examples of use of the language. Be careful, though -- just because something can be done doesn't mean it's necessarily legal HTML. In fact, a lot of authors write illegal HTML. It's unfortunate and unnecessary, but it's also a fact.
