- HTML 4.01 Reference
- WHATWG's HTML 5 Reference
W3Fools - A W3Schools Intervention also promotes the following "more reputable sources":
Opera Web Standards Curriculum covers the basics of web standards-based design in HTML and CSS.
Google's HTML, CSS, and Javascript from the Ground Up presents the basics of web development with video tutorials presented by Google's expert web developers.
SitePoint is a pretty good reference for HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Their documentation always mentions feature support across different browsers, and describes known browser bugs.
The W3C, itself, has a wiki-based general Learn page as well as an HTML element reference.
The MDN (Mozilla's Developer Network) takes over at intermediate CSS and covers JavaScript better than anyone.
The MDN is also a wiki (little known fact), which means we, as knowledgeable web developers, can add or change information so the pages are as effective and comprehensive as possible.
In general, my first stop for HTML, Javascript or DOM information is the MDC Doc Center from the Mozilla Developer Network. It is occasionally Firefox/Gecko-specific, but is in general a good first stop.
- HTML doc center
- Javascript doc center
- DOM doc center
Personally, I find the HTML spec (and even more the DOM spec) far to hard to take in quickly or to use as a quick reference. MDC is great for that.
Learning HTML CSS and JavaScript. I don't know a thing about coding but i have read about system communication is W3school good place to start. Also i don't like watch tutorial i prefer reading docs over watching someone else teach. My mom is a CSE professor and i can ask her if i get confused with reading material, but she doesn't have an idea about market trends and hiring.
