From the Back Cover / Weaving a Web Site is a comprehensive and dynamic introduction to web programming that assumes no prior programming experience. The text begins with HTML and moves to progressively more complex languages: JavaScript, Perl, and Java. It contains over 200 programs chosen from a variety of topics designed to capture readers' interest and encourage them to use their imagination when developing web pages. Such topics include recipes, football terms, crossword puzzles, multi-language dictionaries, suggestion boxes, opinion polls, Shakespearean quizzes, and bird identification pages.
