Summary

Software development is increasingly Web-centered. With Internet and World Wide Web How to Program, you can learn Web-centered development from the ground up, at the same time you learn the fundamentals of programming. Harvey and Paul Deitel, two of the world's leading programming instructors, teach all the basics of programming in the context of Internet/Web markup languages (HTML, Dynamic HTML, and XML) and scripting languages (JavaScript, VBScript, and Perl). This 1,200-page, exceptionally thorough book covers virtually every Web development skill now in demand, from effective page design to server and client-side scripting; ActiveX controls; even the basics of electronic commerce. It includes hundreds of "live code" examples -- along with a CD-ROM containing an extensive library of Web software, plus hundreds of live Web pages demonstrating today's most important development techniques.
