Learning HTML is anyway not difficult. However, it can take a lot of time to code the pages. Using a WYSIWYG (i.e., what-you-see-is-what-you-get) editor such as Microsoft FrontPage or Macromedia Dreamweaver can be a good alternative, particularly for static Web pages.

For those who want to add dynamic features (e.g., database capabilities) to their Web pages, HTML is fundamental for learning other Web programing languages such as JavaScript or PHP. The most up-to-date materials concerning HTML can always be obtained from the Wide Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
