Summary: Poor text book
Comment: This book falls into the category of text books written where the writers don't know how to write one. This book is our text at the College of San Mateo in California and it fails to state what needs to be learned in a concise manner. As an example chapter 9 is titled JavaScript: Functions, I would expect that there would be a list of the functions introduced along with the proper syntax, but there is none. Chapter 5 is Cascading Style Sheets but does not have a section or clear reference on how to call an external sheet... not even in the index. Skip this book and consider "JavaScript the definitive guide" by O'reilly and "HTML,XHTML & CSS Visual Quickstart Guide" by Elizabeth Castro. You will be much better served by those two books.

Summary: Better than most computer textbooks
Comment: It seems that computer texts are often quite confusing and poorly written. This one is for the most part much clearer, and does not usually assume the reader has knowledge of additional subjects without mentioning this fact.

Summary: Almost everything you need to know about Internet technologies, in brief.
Comment: Excellent book for those seeking to know WHAT internet programming technologies are about (HTML, XML, VBscript, PHP, MYSQL, SQL Serve, Apache, Dreamweaver, IIS, Javascript, etc).

Good introductory book for programmers.

Summary: Great if you've never turned on a computer
Comment: This is used in our Web Admin class at school. It talks to a reader so lowly that it becomes monotonous and excruciating to read. It does not make a good reference as the information isn't indexed well. The book does exceed in great lengths to explain every single detail of every aspect of every web building tool that one can purchase. It requires purchase of either Microsoft or Adobe products to use, there is no Open Source sources for use. Aptana is excellent for an Open Source web development tool. That is one area the book become specific, it details how-to on paid for products. Several classmates found the book to be just as bad. I learned more on w3schools in two days, than anything this book offers.
I gave it two stars only because it could be a great book for someone emerging from a cave and deciding to be a web administrator.
I have found this for several Deitel books. If you want excellent sources of information, get books from O'Reilly publishing, or Wiley publishing. Or better yet, search amazon by subject, and find a book with more than 20 reviews, and at least 4.5 stars.
Previous to this class, and this book, my experience as a web admin was minimal to none. Other parts of computing were quite familiar.

Summary: worth every penny, recommend
Comment: I didn't realize what a great book I was getting. It is a huge textbook that is well written and includes online resources. Overall, it is the best computer book I have ever seen, read, used, or owned. I recommend it to others.
Oh...and...Javascript and Java programming language are two different things (this book covers Javascript). I will look for more Deitel books in the future...and not just because I need a good book on Java programming.
