This book helped me to understand and use some of the more advanced CSS techniques. I recommend it to those already familiar with CSS and who are looking to advance their skills.

I'm very surprised that no one has mentioned the glaring errors in Chapter 3. A lot of the code does not match many of the names from the downloaded files. The code from pages 52-53 is identical to 50-51 even though it mentions that there are...

If you are truly new to CSS and not really proficient in HTML, browsers and the like, this is not what you need. The authors will have you think that the book targets a general audience, but this is constantly belied by examples were some elements...

I enjoyed this book. It is easy to read and is well structured. The author walks you through the concepts used to design web sites, and takes you from the drawing board to the actual implementation of a site he made. This book is ultimately...

I'm a regular visitor to sitepoint. I do enjoy Jason Beard's writings. However, after finishing this book I find myself not one whit smarter and actually feel dumber for having spent the $ on it. Seriously, anything this elementary should be...

This book reads fine and is light reading. Good enough to get familiar with the subject and go through quickly. Suitable for those unfamiliar with the process one takes to web design. For those who have built sites, it maybe too basic and...

I'd been trying to use a book from Microsoft, but it didn't help much. I got this book, and I was able to work on my website much more quickly. I'm not completely done yet, but I couldn't be as far as I am without this book. I give it high marks.

I really was hoping that I could cobble together an actual website after reading this, but no. As another reviewer said, it's a mix of the extremely simple and the very complex. There's no in between for someone like me who has created websites in...

The third updated edition of Agile Web Development with Rails is a manual no Ruby library or web programmer's development collection should be without. Rails has evolved and this book has changed to match it, still offering step-by-step...

I had almost zero background in Web Applications (I work in embedded systems programming). Few days back I gave a shot to understanding the .Net framework, however it was just too much coding for a starter like me. Someone told me about Ruby on...

This book starts with no (or very little) knowledge of web design, and does a good job of covering the basics. One could fashion a basic website using only this book as reference. Advanced topics would require further reference, but this is...

I ordered this book along with HTML for Dummies expecting to get started writing simple web pages.

I was very disappointed with this book...It spent too much time promoting tools and services outside of the "Dummy" concept. It...

Let's face it, if you've chosen this book, you admit to having little to no knowledge about web design. In other words, you admit you are "dumb" when it comes to the topic, and hope that the author understands you need to start from point zero and...

I was surprised not to see a 'ONE STAR' Rating I guess most readers are above average.

The biggest problem I found was use of Python script. I don't know Python and this books uses it heavily to an extent that I had to pick a Python...

most people have shared their thoughts on the good of this book. I like to point out some of the bad as I read through:

- first, too many typos - both the author and oreilly should do a better job on proof read the materials. the...

I want to learn web design, so I did some research on the topic. It seems everybody is saying this is a must-read for web designers. So I bought the book, read it and I must say this is NOT the book if you want to learn web design. If you don't...
