Overall Learning of HTML and Specific HTML Features
Notes:
- For this question, users were asked to rate the difficulty of learning
HTML overall and some specific features of HTML (CGI, FORMS, and ISMAP) on
a scale of 1 to 9.
- CGI was rated the most difficult (4.996) followed by FORMS
(3.976), ISMAP (3.894), and HTML overall (2.471). Interestingly, none of
these averages are near the maximum difficulty rating of 9.0.
- Users in Europe ranked each category slightly less difficult than users in the US did.
