Mysterious Demystification

I found I couldn't get past the enormous amount of errata in this book - had I not known the plan, I would find the directions for CSS and tables to be not only confusing, but wrong. In checking the web site to download the exercise files, I found no section for errata, which really needs to be done.

The book does have useful information about working with ColdFusion, PHP, ASP.NET and building dynamic sites; however, until we lay Netscape 4.7 to rest some day, it does have to be a big consideration in web design and this is where the book falls short - little to no mention of the pitfalls in this browser or how to work around them so that the site you design is going to hold up. I'm unhappy I spent the money on this book as it really falls short as a good reference, much less as a teaching aid.

A better choice for the money would be Garo Green with Lynda Weinman's book, Dreamweaver MX 2004 Hands-On Training.
