I really appreciated the information in your HTML tutorial; it was exactly
what I needed. Since I have benefited from it I thought I might be able to
help you improve it in a small way by pointing out what appear to be a
couple of typos.
Typo 1
Location: http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/html/tables
About 80% of the way down the page in the first paragraph of the section
labeled "Adding a table head, body, and foot"
There is a sentence that contains the following, "...keep them usuefully
positioned..." where I believe "usuefully" should be "usefully".
Typo 2
Location: http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/html/framesets
About 40% of the way down the page, in the 2nd paragraph in the section
titled "The frame element"
It says "this it the type" where I believe it should say "this is the type".
Thank you for making this instructive tutorial available.

Hello Mark,
It is I, your typo correction agent, again! I was reading the HTML forms
page and started on the CSS tutorial today, and I think I found a few more
typos.
Typo 1
Location: http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/html/forms
3rd paragraph of the document
I suspect that the phrase "method you want to form to use" is supposed to be
"method you want the form to use".
Typo 2 & 3
Location: http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/css/introduction
5th paragraph down. These two are in the same sentence.
Should "having to work that a browser might" be "having to worry that a
browser might" and "browser will sorrectly applly a rule" be "browser will
correctly apply"?
Thanks again. These tutorials are a big help as I try to get up to speed on
"new" web-development technologies after having been out of it for several
years.
