I still use it as a reference today, but it is the best any money can buy for learning Perl. I'm back buying another copy because I loaned mine to a friend and I miss it so much that I want to make sure I'll always have a copy handy. My old ...             The Ruby Programming Language15 reviews Yukihiro Matsomoto, Keiju Ishituka Addison Wesley, 2002 Excellent, but should not be used as a tutorial This is an excellent reference book on Ruby, if you already know Ruby this book will help you a lot, but if you are looking for a tutorial on Ruby this book should not be your first choice.             Learning jQuery: Better Interaction Design and Web Development with Simple JavaScript Techniques20 reviews Karl Swedberg, Jonathan Chaffer Packt Publishing, 2007 Use JavaScript the easy way with jQuery I've used JavaScript for 9 years and have hated the way it needs to be developed differently for different browsers. And there are the little gotchas that take way too long to run down in forums. Enter jQuery. The jQuery JavaScript library takes the pain out of using JavaScript. It handles the browsers and leaves us free to simply add functionality to websites in a logical and consistent way. ...             JavaScript Demystified9 reviews McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2005 I learned all the tricks I see on the web I you ever wondered how the professional web page developers dress up their web pages, then take a look at this book.

It does assume the reader has some basic prior programming experience, but either way it is very logical and easy to follow. The book is well-organized so that you can easily find what you need.

I bought this book very recently, having no prior ...             jQuery in Action10 reviews Bear Bibeault, Yehuda Katz Manning Publications, 2008 Made the whole learning process much more enjoyable I have solid JavaScript skills and plenty of experience, but at first I wasn't feeling 100% comfortable using jQuery; I was able to be productive very quickly, but failed to feel at home using it. This book was exactly what I was looking for. jQuery has its own way to approach many problems and, in my case, I almost had to "unlearn" certain habits and embrace the idiomatic alternatives offered by ...             Pro PHP XML and Web Services (Pro)8 reviews Robert Richards Apress, 2006 Heavy Metal XML This is first and foremost an XML reference. The author takes the reader through over 100 pages XML background in the first three chapters, then an overview of a few utilities like XPath and XPointer before he touches on PHP. Having provided some grounding in the basics, he then proceeds to develop the use of XML in PHP from the basic topics of DOM (Document Object Model) and XSLT (Extensible ...             Advanced VBScript for Microsoft Windows Administrators (Pro Other)6 reviews Don Jones, Jeffery Hicks Microsoft Press, 2006 Delivers what it promises It never ceases to amaze me how many scripting books, including this one, start off telling you that you should already have intermediate to advanced scripting skills before you read, yet spend an initial chapter explaining what an array or an object is. It leaves me feeling that their definition of what "advanced" is will differ greatly from mine. I am also always a little dismayed when ...             mod_perl Developer's Cookbook (Developer's Library)7 reviews Geoffrey Young, Paul Lindner, ... Sams, 2002 The book mod_perl programmers have been waiting for Over the last few years mod_perl has become a serious force in web development. If you're building a web site to run on an Apache server and you want to write the code in Perl, then you're going to want to install mod_perl on your server too as it's the best way to avoid many of the performance issues with traditional CGI. It's taken a while for publishers to wake up to the fact, however, and ...             Server-Side JavaScript(TM): Developing Integrated Web Applications7 reviews Robert Husted, J.J. Kuslich Addison-Wesley (C), 1999 Excellent book ever seen on server side javascript If any one wanted to learn good SSJS programming techniques, this is the best buy.

I suspect that many readers learn as I do by testing and experimenting with code examples. To get the most out of the book, these readers should have access to a desktop or ISP web server with Php capability. Throught out the book, the author refers the ...             IT Administrator's Top Ten Introductory Scripts for Windows (Administrator's Advantage Series) ...6 reviews Jeff Fellinge Charles River Media, 2004 A Great Scripting Resource for Windows Sysadmin. I am one of the Technical Writers who contributed to the Microsoft Windows Scripting Guide for Microsoft Press. Since working on that book, Mr. Fellinge's book is the first I've reviewed on scripting.

These ...             Perl Hacks: Tips & Tools for Programming, Debugging, and Surviving (Hacks)9 reviews chromatic, Damian Conway, ... O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2006 Excellent Compendium of Perl Tricks To be completely honest, this isn't the book I thought it was going to be. Most O'Reilly Hacks books start off pretty simply and in a few chapters take you to the further reaches of their subject area. Whilst this is a great way to quickly get a good taste of a particular topic, it has the occasional disadvantage that for subjects that you know well, the first couple of chapters can seem a bit ...             HTML Dog: The Best-Practice Guide to XHTML and CSS8 reviews Patrick Griffiths New Riders Press, 2006 Excellent guide to using CSS with XHTML Strict This book is not a comprehensive encyclopedia of every CSS nuance, but it presents all the main areas in a very clear, but not dumbed-down manner. Basically it answered my three questions: 1. I wanted to re-write an older web site using CSS and modern HTML web stds, so where do I start? 2. What is my best approach? 3. Why would I want to do it that way? So along the way it clarified for me ...             Advanced Rails Recipes6 reviews Mike Clark Pragmatic Bookshelf, 2008 Get it, it will pay for itself immediately. I went through this book cover-to-cover every few pages saying, 'Wow, I could have used/need that now!' If you're a RoR developer, you really should have this book on your shelf. I marked maybe 75% of the recipes as something I could use--worth it's weight in gold!             GWT in Practice6 reviews Robert Cooper, Charlie Collins Manning Publications, 2008 GWT In Practice - Worth Reading GWT In Practice is well worth having as a reference for any developer who will be using GWT toolkit or is already using the GWT toolkit.
