Spinning the Web Summary

Spinning the Web: A Guide to Serving Information on the World Wide Web by Yuval Fisher

Most books on the Internet describe it from the user's end. This one, however, is unique in its focus on serving information on the World Wide Web. It presents everything from the basics to advanced techniques and will thus prove invaluable to site administrators and developers. The author - an expert developer and researcher at UCSD - covers such topics as HTML 3.0, serving documents, interfaces, WWW utilities and browsers such as Netscape. Fisher also includes an introduction to programming with JAVA and JAVA script, as well as the complete VRML 1.0 specification. With tie-ins to Springer's Web site, featuring a bulletin board for the latest information online.
