Web Site Wizardry: Master the Creation of Interactive Web Sites That Come Alive

Web Site Wizardry is an invaluable reference for people who need interactive web sites and do not have access to CGI rights on their service providers system. (It also deals with CGI and other server side issues.)

It took me only five minutes to make the purchase decision regarding Web Site Wizardry--normally I take half an hour to an hour to check out a computer book before buying it. I needed answers to two questions when I bought this book: how to process forms and how to create image maps without CGI rights. Web Site Wizardry answered both.

Later, when reading through more of the book, I was VERY pleasantly suprised with the tone of the writing. The author instructs the reader on how to apply the programming techniques in a direct yet honest manner. Reading this book is like attending an informal gathering of people where there is a beneficial exchange of information--not like a formal lecture. To further reinforce my positive experience with Web Site Wizardry, the author PROMPTY emailed a detailed answer to a question I sent her.

Web Site Wizardry answered my immediate questions. It is now providing me with an enjoyable reading experience as I move on to other aspects of interactive Web programming. With computer books being as costly as they are, this is one of the ones to buy.
