HTML help

[Jon'o]

wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction really.

I started a new job at work this week, which mostly involves producing reports and stuff on how my department is performing to other managers and directors in the company but also to the FSA.

Some of these reports need to be published on our intranet site, and i was wondering if anyone know of any good sites which could give me a bit of a insight to html coding, so my eyes dont glaze over when im being taught that part of the job.

Any help or pointers in the right direction welcomed

I don't like w3chools meself, the format just doesn't work for me. I learned HTML (oh-so many years ago) from Joe Burns on his excellent HTML Goodies site; sadly taken over now and not as homely as it used to be, but the tutorial are still excellent for a n00b.

That being said, the best solution these days for an intranet, assuming users can be trusted, is a wiki. If the users can't be trusted, you're better off with some kind of CMS.

I just started using BIRT recently, not sure if it's what you're looking for, but it really is the mutt's nuts - and I've used my fair share of reporting engines, so I know what I'm talking about - unfortunately it does need a level of experience with eclipse and database queries (used to create the data in the reports) but the report designer is a piece of p!ss to use.

Reports can be produced in HTML or PDF, so you won't have to learn it at all!!
