 A Generally Good Reference Book
Worthy of the O'Reilly name, this was a good book that covered many interesting topics. It's contains some good information about web concepts that are of valuable use to programmers, like myself. However, it is not a book on "web programming", so don't expect it to contain any Java-specific information. If you are interested in learning how browsers work, (X)HTML concepts, CSS, a little Javascript, graphics, etc., this book will provide some invaluable information. Also, an excellent reference book.
 Web Design in a Nutshell: A Desktop Quick Reference
This comprehensive reference book covers every topic a web designer could need in 36 chapters. Numerous code examples and figures showing the end result make it easy to find and understand. As with so many of the website reference books published by O'Reilly Media, Inc., this book is an excellent addition to a web designer's library.
Great overview / refresher for me
I got this from the library to see how I liked it, and then ordered it. If you do websites and are overwhelmed by all the myriad details, and needing a quick clarification or reminder, you might want to add this to your library.
Web Design in a Nutshell: A Desktop Quick Reference
Web Design in a Nutshell is not merely an updated edition of the previous book (2001) of the same title. Extremely quick substantial changes in the web design systems over these past few years simply wouldn't allow for such an update. Instead, the author has composed this book from the ground up to address the issues and concerns of web designers in 2006. This reference covers all the basics of web design how tos from basics like choosing text elements and creating links through more challenging topics such as optimization of graphics and using flash on web pages. However, the portion of the book that I found most useful was the sections on designing sites for a variety of different browsers and increasing accessibility on your website. Together, these aspects create an easy to understand guide for those individuals wanting an introduction to web design or as very solid reference material for current web designers.
Very good book for CSS
I really enjoy this book. I used it to learn Cacading Style Sheets. A few years ago I had been part of a team to develop a web application where I used the "old" way of constructing a web page - with the font tags, etc. I used this book to learn to separate page content from formatting using CSS. I find that it is a good reference book to have on my desk.
