HTML 4.01 Programmer's Reference
by Chris Ullman, et al
"HTML has dominated the World Wide Web as its publishing
language for many years," observe the authors of HTML 4.01
Programmer's Reference. "There are not really any
alternatives to HTML out there, even after all this time." But there
are plenty of new features in HTML 4.01 that working Web developers
need to master. This reference and tutorial to today's HTML (and
related standards) will help anyone create Web pages that work well
on all browsers and take advantage of advanced features like style
sheets, DHTML, and newer whistles and bells that can help make your
Web applications slicker and more responsive.

Effective Java(TM) Programming Language Guide (The Java(TM) Series)
by Joshua Bloch
You think you're a hot Java programmer, but you aren't
perfect--yet. Josh Bloch is one of the Java core architects, and in
Effective Java Programming Language Guide he
effectively provides a Java master class. The book groups 57 items by
subject, each of which highlights a "gotcha," expands on best
practices, or argues for deprecating a common practice. For example,
among the gotchas, Bloch points out problems with relying on
finalizers, whose implementation varies from one JVM to another and
may not run at all under some circumstances.

Mysql and Perl for the Web
by Paul DuBois
MySQL and Perl for the Web provides a
much-needed handbook for database and Web developers seeking an
extensive and detailed guide for using the combination of MySQL and
Perl to build dynamic and interactive database-backed Web sites. It
shows how to use Perl's DBI database access module, pairing it with the CGI.pm module that allows Web pages and forms to be
generated and processed easily. These tools provide developers with a
solid foundation for creating applications that incorporate database
content to create dynamic, up-to-date Web sites.

Kylix Developer's Guide
by Charles Calvert, et al
Kylix Developer's Guide includes three main
themes. First, the book recognizes that much of its audience will be
Windows developers who need to understand basic Linux development
strategies, so information throughout the book offers insight on how
to leverage Windows development knowledge to the Linux platform.
There is significant coverage of the tools and features of the Kylix
environment, but the book assumes that readers will be familiar with
RAD development tools in general. Finally, there is extensive
coverage of how to apply the CLX library in building solid
applications. The book also discusses cross-platform development
strategies. --From the back cover
