3,386 PointsHey. Thanks guys. When I took the How to Build a Website class this past summer Nick Petit (I think that's the instructor's name) said that most of what was being learned was HTML 4. Maybe I should retake that lesson, huh?

28,793 PointsIt would be odd if a recent course were taught using HTML 4.01. It was replaced by XHTML as a standard over a decade ago and html 5 has replaced XHTML as the new standard. Could it be that the instructor actually said a lot of the coding in the class would be similar to HTML 4.01?

However you can get most of what you will use day-to-day if you go through the Treehouse HTML course and then check out the Tuts Plus HTML5 and You blog series.
