I read your page http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/ with interest. I am self taught at html, largely from your html4.01 specification, and which I found easy to follow. Your xhtml and xhtml Basic specifications are not so easy to follow, because you are expected to know something about the subject already! A comprehensive specification, like html 4.01 would be better, or alternatively, many more links to the appropriate part of html 4.01 would do. One issue I have found (as an amateur) is that the html 4.01 guidance on maps didn't work. When I tried writing html maps following the examples I had no joy, but Dreamweaver somehow put them together differently, and they did. Also, and much more importantly, I have difficulty displaying objects - they seem to work on some computers but not others. Images on the other hand always display if I use <img src="... ! Any ideas?
