Average Rating:
Rating: - index works but search does not
It has a lot of content, but buyer beware, there are compatibility problems with the search engine and browser, specifically from the CD:
This search engine works with most Java-enabled browsers supporting version Java 1.1.2 or later. It has problems running with Mozilla 0.9 and 1.0 and Netscape 7 on Mac OS 9...
Well Mozilla essentially means all of the new Netscape releases also (since its Mozilla based). I don't know what Microsoft-only planet the idiots who wrote the search ... Read More
Rating: - Web Development in a Nutshell
I have to admit; I love direct, hard hitting, honesty.
The authors of one of the six books contained in this series say it all when they introduce their book with this comment:
"This book is by impatient writers for impatient readers, so don't expect much history or analysis here, just a basic tour of how everything fits together."
I cannot improve on that. Long after you pass your certification exams and place those trophy books on the shelf to collect dust, this collection ... Read More
Rating: - The Web Programming Cd Bookshelf: Version 1.0
One of the biggest deterrents in computers is questions. It is funny how one question can lead to a dozen more. I call this the snowball effect. I discovered that I spend hours daily researching for answers. About a month ago, I came across O'reilly's Bookshelves. I thought to myself. Here we go all the answers that I want all wrapped up and discounted. Well little did I know what came in the bookshelves. I started reading and noticed a few examples that I could use. So I popped in the CD so I could to try these ... Read More
Rating: - Everything you need, all in one place
By M. Todd Lassich Bishop Eastern Sierra Macintosh User Group (beSMUG)
I remember when I was first learning to program in HyperCard. I still have all of the books I bought, hoping someday they'll port my beloved, easy-to-use programming language to OS X, and my 300,000+ lines of code will again see the light of day. As I look at all these books-$400 dollars worth and taking up most of a 4-foot shelf-I remember that each had its strong points and that many times I needed to cross-reference the information ...

Rating: - A great resource for anyone working with the web.
There are many, many books out there on computers; my local bookstore has racks and racks of books on the subject. But how does one collect a good library of books that will help him out, without breaking the bank. O'Reilly hits the spot with it's CD Bookshelf collection. The series offers readers five to six books on CD and one hardcopy book for much less than the cost of those same books in hardcopy. The newest collection in this series is The Web Programming CD Bookshelf. This collection covers most of what one needs ... Read More
