I am interested in learning both Java and html, but I don't have time to take a class right now. So, I was wondering if anyone knows of a book or two that is easy enough to understand but not too hard to follow.... Or maybe I am asking too much a programming book that is not hard to follow.... LOL

I have always preferred O'Reilly publications due to their thorough coverage of content and ease of reading.

When you are looking at books, remember that JavaScript and JAVA are two totally different things.

Designing with JavaScript, on O'Reilly, is pretty approachable.

the Absolute Beginners Guide to JavaScript is what I learned from (as an absolute beginner;) and no snags.

I thought JavaScript for the World Wide Web [amazon.com] by Tom Negrino and Dori Smith was easy to follow. It uses a more visual approach, and it gets right to the point.

Second what adni18 said.

I have several books in the Visual QuickStart Guide series - they are all very good indeed.

It's what I'd recommend.
