I’m on my third version of this book. It is comprehensive technical reference of core web technologies.
Specifically, HTML, Javascript, HTTP, CSS, and the like. As a reference, it is very thorough in each topic, covering every single element, every single object, every single response header, and every single style (at the time it was written, anyway). However, it is also very succinct. This book is NOT FOR LEARNING. It’s a REFERENCE for professionals.
Of all the technical books I’ve ever owned, this book is without any doubt the one I use the most. This book (and even the third version) is a little out-of-date. Nonetheless, it is invaluable to a web developer, and is still better than any other reference that I’m aware of.
