Review: Here is the most comprehensive reference available on HTML, Web page creations, and new Web programming techniques and technologies. The two CD-ROMs include the most complete set of HTML tools, including editors, Java tools, code samples, plug-ins, plug-in development tools, and more, plus tools for Windows, Macintosh, and UNIX, along with a library of 10 top-selling Que Web development books in HTML format.

Summary: A valuable compendium for serious website builders
Review: I agree this book shouldn't say it covers Java1.1, but I was surprised at the number of negative reviews here, so I went and checked your page on Stanek's book. What seems to be going on is that people who are into web pages that LOOK good love Stanek's book, but people who are into web pages that DO things (like electronic commerce) find useful info in the Que book on subjects such as Web connectivity to databases, database primers, and so forth that Stanek does not seem to cover. I did not buy this book primarily as an HTML book. And even though the Java coverage is dated, it's well illustrated and much more extensive than Stanek's coverage of Java seems to be. Mac users may be annoyed that the CDs are for Windows only.

Summary: A great Bargain!
Review: This book is awesome, especially the CDs that came with it. The package is very relevant for me being a webmaster, the books gave me the idea of the different concept of building and implementing a web server in different platforms!
