HTML, JAVAScript,JAVA,CGI- What else do you need?

GOOD book. Loads of information. It assumes prior knowledge of some of the Technologies but a good place to CONTINUE from a beginners book (NOT A STARTER BOOK BY ALL MEANS!) Particularly useful for new technologies eg ActiveX and XML. Good buy second book.

Good book to sort out which various web technologies

I was looking for a book to help me sort through which web technologies I should use (Active Server Pages, Java servlets, CGI, client vs server-side coding, scripting vs compiled code, etc.) in designing an online resource for my employer's web site. This book assumes some technical background to be easily readable. It is definitely an overview of the available technologies (not an in depth tutorial, although it does give a good sense of what it takes to work with each technology). I found it to be EXTREMELY helpful in explaining how the different web technologies relate and for getting a bird's eye view of how to work with each technology. This book was exactly what I needed to help me make an informed decision of which web technologies were right for the job I was faced with. After skimming the appropriate sections, I was ready to start planning the development work ahead of me. Before this book I was wondering whether there was some technology that I might be missing or whether I was indeed choosing the right method for what I had to do.

Excellent Book for Beginners

I am a beginner in programming HTML and JavaScript, but not in computer science at all. So for me it was important to find a book which covers all - HTML, Java, JavaScript, CGI, StyleSheets, but not on a level which tell me, what a computer is or whow to write programs. So I am very happy with this book, although I am missing some "in depth information" in some chapters.
