- The HTML Web Publisher's Construction Kit covers many details
- about the HyperText Markup Language (HTML). One of the coolest
- things about HTML is it's not platform specific. All of the HTML
- lessons in the book will work whether you use MS-DOS, Windows,
- Macs, or UNIX workstations. If your machine has a browser for it,
- you can use any of the HTML examples in the book. This CD-ROM
- contains a lot of software for Windows. This is because the
- author's primary HTML development platform happened to be a
- Windows machine.
-
- This file contains information that did not have time to make
- the book.

- Page 614 explains how to extract the WIN_HTTPD.ZIP file on the
- CD-ROM. If you are using PKUNZIP to extract the files, type
-
- pkunzip -d win_httpd.zip
-
- and press the <ENTER> key. If you are using UNZIP -- a lesser known
- decompression program -- the directions in the book are correct.
-
- Page 654, in Table D-1, a CGI directory is shown in the WINDOWS directory.
- There isn't one on the CD-ROM. The CGI scripts available for Windows are
- inside of the WIN_HTTPD.ZIP distribution file, as per the distribution
- instructions of WIN_HTTPD. Please extract this file first and then the
- CGI scripts will be available.
-
- Page 653 - 655, Appendix D, lists a Mac directory. This directory
- does not exist. A Windows 95 directory has been added that duplicates
- the Windows directory. The only difference between the Windows and
- Windows 95 directories is that HTML documents have a .HTML extension
- and not .HTM as found in the Windows directory. This is so you can
- use Netscape or your browser of choice to click on the links found
- in the HTML sample files.
