A Poorly Written and Poorly Xeroxed "Handout",
By "willsh" (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Webmaster's Guru Pack (Paperback)
I was very disappointed in the content, editing, and xeroxing quality of this "book." The "OCR" typeface used is difficult to read, and there is no reader layout/formatting help with bolding, indentations, etc. It's like reading a line printer listings from the 1960s. The printer to generate the copier original was evidently not high resolution, and the GBC plastic "spiral binding" is flimsy.There is no overview for the book nor how the examples are organized, and the cutsie/folksy phrases, Whew!, and overusage of exclamation points grow tiresome. The "massive collection" of scripts amounted to 31 basic scripts on a floppy. I have degrees in SW engineering and am used to nerdy styles, but for this book's price I expected something far more professional and accessible.

If you know or don't, you gotta see this book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Webmaster's Guru Pack (Paperback)
This is a really great book! I have a little web site and had the programs I wanted up and running in no time. Okay, maybe five minutes. :-) What impressed me most besides the CGI Framing was the Bob100 AI Program. It is really great since my web site has a personality and Bob100 can talk to anyone that comes by at any time. Definately, lots of original thinking went into this book!

This Was Perfect For Me!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Webmaster's Guru Pack (Paperback)
I am somewhat new to webpages and CGI. This manual clearly and concisely taught me how to better manipulate my friend's pages for him since features like a search engine was what he wanted. The ability to control 'allowed language' in the Guestbook was a helpful revelation to me (Chapter 4) that keeps profanity out. The disk covered the actual programs and all I had to do was modify the right text, saving me hours of trial and error in writing my own! But helpful doesn't begin to describe this great book as I now better understand how to manipulate the site and more. Two thumbs up! :-)
