In-depth coverage of introductory programming principles, various markup languages (XHTML, Dynamic HTML and XML), several scripting languages (JavaScript, VBScript, Perl, Python, PHP, ColdFusion, and FlashActionScript), Web servers (IIS and Apache), and relational databases (MySQL) provide all the skills and tools needed to create dynamic Web-based applications. This new edition contains chapters on Macromedia ColdFusion, a leading server-side scripting software package, and Macromedia Dreamweaver, a powerful WYSIWYG editor and Web application creation tool. Hundreds of LIVE-CODE examples (i.e., complete, working programs) of real applications throughout the book and on the accompanying CD allow readers to run the applications and see and hear the outputs.

Rating: - you won't learn much here
The book wants to cover too many argumenets and the result is very disappointing. It's not fluent and there are too many mistakes. My worst book so far.
Rating: - A mixed bag of fruits
It's tough to rate this book.

The PHP section is very short and topics such as PHP classes aren't even mentioned. The main problem with this book is that it's trying to create something that is just too ambitious. There are many commands, for every scripting language I mentioned above, that are missing. IMHO, I think ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent for any programming leve
This is an excellent book. A lot of examples which help you to understand the topics. If you want to learn the fundation of JavaScript, this book has four chapters about this topic. It covers diffenrent type of databases.
Sometimes, it jumps (or reference) to other chapter. In general, it is an excellent book.
Rating: - Expert Review
I found this book very easy to understand and the illustrated example was very interesting. The author of the book was concern about the practical part of internet programming.
Rating: - it's a little much
For learning how to program from scratch, i wouldn't recommend this book. It's to fast through javascript. Yet I haven't read all 1000 pages yet, that's what I've taken from it so far. Seems good for asp and stuff like that though.
