Some weeks ago I wondered aloud on The Corner how best I could unshackle myself and my website from the Monster from the Black Bog, a.k.k. Microsoft FrontPage. Numerous readers responded very helpfully. I decided to become a master of XHTML/CSS. I bought Elizabeth Castro’s book, heavily recommended by Corner readers. I am going to get a couple more books, to learn Javascript and PHP. (I already know database design and SQL from my DB2 days.) I wouldn’t actually recommend the Castro book for anyone who doesn’t already have a good coding background. She assumes a certain cast of mind in the reader, and I think if you don’t have that cast of mind, you’d be better with a step-by-step instruction book.
