This book makes an excellent reference guide though I was able to read it straight through. The authors are blunt and thorough--very realistic and pragmatic. When something in the standard sucks, they point it out. They have a good and geeky sense of humour.


X/HTML is covered in its entirety concerning the present, historical artifacts, and a look to the future. Surrounding technologies such as JavaScript, Java, and CSS are given a detailed overlook and books are referenced so that the reader has somewhere to look concerning those other technologies.
