Stay away. This page has dozens of dubious scripts. Nothing happens if
JavaScript is disabled, though, except a button to download a 636KB
file.

Suit yourself. There is nothing wrong with this download at all. Just
trying to help out. Box.net is online storage and that is where the
file is located.

By the way here is a link to the actual site for the file.

Frames, tables for layout, deprecated mark-up, emphasis by changing font
styles rather than em or strong, "files...should have htm extensions", page
template with no doctype, and more than I can be bothered to list...

"I've been learning HTML and htis would have made things a lot easier."

Easier, maybe - but certainly not better.

Significantly better information available on the net.

Which has links to .exe files which sensible Windows users will not
download, and which people with other systems cannot use.

If the books are genuine and free, why not make them available in
HTML?

"If you are not sure about downloading or dealing with .exe files

What to do with .exe files

Give them a try. You've nothing to lose."

lol... Then the advice on this page:

is priceless!

1. These .exe files are information which has been compressed to take up
less space.

2. They can also be downloaded and extracted without the unzipping
process.

3. The really good news is - they unzip themselves!

9. If a dialogue box pops up and asks -

'Create directory C:\FOLDER ?'

- you should say 'Yes'.

13. Remember - you can delete it all later if you wish.

Sure, go'head and run all them .exe files!!1! You've nothing to lose!!11

Unbelievable. This crap obviously hasn't been updated in years. I wouldn't
trust anything on this site. My ten-year-old has better sense than this. :-\

I really appreciate your input on this minute subject. I did notice,
most took a significant amount of time to review the file. Some of
which read the whole book. So therefore, mission accomplished.

Or sour grapes.

Neat twist though - posting here so that everyone will say how useless the
product is. They're always up to new tricks aren't they?

Yeah, pretty clever, unfortunately several apply this method. Not sure
how successful the sale is in this group, hopefully not at all.
