Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for experinced and begineers alike
Review: This book covers everything and the short refernce section is great too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very good reference book....
Review: This book does an excellent job as reference material for any web designer or web server admin. I bought this book quite a while ago and since that time it hasn't left my desktop. I reccomend this book to anyone who deals with web sites or web servers for a profession.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: good as a reference for webmasters
Review: This book is a good introduction to all the topics a webmaster is interested in. Is a good tool for working with the server, but only if you know what you are doing. It does not teach the reader, it is only a good reference.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The HOTTEST Book on a Wemaster's Shelf!
Review: This book is seriously a MUST have! I was so impressed with the first edition (1996) that I bought the 2nd, and I am even more impressed. I love both these books SO much that I literally carry them around with me. Probably the BEST and most compact reference you can buy!

Let me remind the readers that this is a REFERENCE book. Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT buy this book if you are expecting to learn everything inside it from scratch. You will pull your hair out. Buy this book if you already grasp the basics of HTML, javascript, CSS, CGI with perl, and server config. (Basically what an average webmaster should) - You will not only consider this your 'golden' book, you will use it over and over until the pages wear thin.

Countless times I found myself forgetting a simple thing - such as the name of a certain HTML tag or the return type of a specific function, so I pulled out this book and got my answer in seconds. Don't pass this one up! DON'T! I promise you that this little Red and White book will forever be your best friend!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent reference source!
Review: This book is the first by O'Rielly that I've picked up and is definately not the last. It is an excellent reference book. I know some about webmastering but this book showed me things I didn't know. It isn't a tutorial, but it does cover the most used aspects of web development.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very Handy
Review: This book isn't a replacement for other books that cover the topics within more fully, but it provides an excellent quick reference guide for most of the tools used to program sophisticated web content.

Instead of having a stack of books open to various pages while I figure out how to do something new, I can usually find enough information within this one relatively slim and portable book

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Incredibly useful
Review: This book keeps all of my most important quick references on SSIs, Perl, JavaScript, response codes, server configuration, HTML, etc. all right in my fingertips (or briefcase). Coooooooool

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great reference
Review: This book like all of the books in the Nutshell series is great reference material. They seem to know just what and how much material into the book to make it one of the best. It covers basics on all the concepts you need to know for web mastering. When you need to look something up, this is the first place I recommend you go. Almost every time you'll find what you are looking for here.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A DEPENDABLE MINI-REFERENCE
Review: This newly released Third Edition of "Webmaster in a Nutshell" indicates a promising improvement over the Second Edition. It is one of the few books that completely analysed all the contemporary web technologies we use today: JavaScript, Apache, XML, HTML, HTTP, PHP, CSS, and CGI. This book will benefit any web-developer (or enthusiast) who pays close attention to it. Most of the chapters have been revised, and additional updates embraced JavaScript, PHP, Apache, and CSS. The book's wide coverage makes it a dependable mini-reference text.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hello...
Review: To the reader who decries the lack of coverage of IIS... wake up and smell the publication date; in 1996 IIS barely existed. I have this book and it's a great reference; of course some stuff is out of date, but that's because the technology changes so fast. A new edition is coming out this summer. Yeah!
