For DUMMIES

The above publisher covers a very wide range of subjects under the banner of For Dummies.
A very comprehensive book called "HTML, XHTML, and CSS all-in-one desk reference" is excellent.
It is easily understood by newcomers, but covering the subject well, plus a lot of detail on program languages(such as Javascript,PHP Ajax).
