Reader Lori Smart of Eugene, OR, says,"We've been in the web development business for over 11 years and have watched so much change in that time. We're often asked what tools are vital to learning how to work in our field. Many from the 'bible' series books have been on our office shelves over the years. This one is the latest to actually take up residence on each of our desks as a regular reference tool. Buy it, use it, use those nifty post-it flags and highlighters all over it, and when the pages start falling out, tape them back in and keep using it. ... It takes an entire library of reference books to stay up with all the changes and aspects of this industry, and as you grow beyond the levels found here add to your collection, but this one really is important to your library!"
