First, there was HTML. Then along came JavaScript. Close on the
heels of JavaScript came CSS and before you mastered that, along
came XML. Behind every successful web page is an overworked and
underappreciated webmaster with a big pile of books about various
web technologies spilling out across their desk. That collection of
books is a valuable resource for delving into the topics at depth
(and at leisure). But when you need an answer fast, the dog-eared
book you'll turn to again and again is the new third edition of
Webmaster in a Nutshell. This concise and portable quick
reference distills...

Mason doesn't aim to be the one true Perl-based templating system
for building web sites, but it's led many programmers to abandon
their custom solutions when they've seen how much easier using
Mason can be. It's a powerful, open source, Perl-based web site
development and delivery engine, with features that make it an
ideal backend for high load sites serving dynamic content. Mason
uses a concept called components: a mix of HTML, Perl, and special
Mason commands. These components can be entire web pages, or bits
of HTML that can be embedded in top-level components. Shared and
reusable,...

While MySQL has turned up among high profile users such as Yahoo!,
NASA and the U.S. Census Bureau, the rising popularity of this open
source database is especially keen among users with little database
experience. These days, even a small organization or web site has
uses for a database, and MySQL is an obvious choice. Affordable and

Mention wireless networks, and the question of security will soon
follow. It's not surprising that in spite of compelling business
arguments for going wireless, many companies are holding back

the issues are not insurmountable. 802.11 Security shows how
you can plan for and successfully contend with security obstacles
in your wireless deployment. This authoritative book not only
explains the security issues, but shows you how to design and build
a your own...

JavaScript--the powerful, object-based scripting language that can
be embedded directly into HTML pages--has earned its place in the
web developer's toolkit, to the extent that it's now considered

search engines, of e-commerce and web services. Understanding HTTP
is essential for practically all web-based programming, design,
analysis, and administration. While the basics of HTTP are
elegantly simple, the protocol's advanced features are notoriously
confusing, because they knit together complex technologies and
terminology from many disciplines. This book clearly explains HTTP
