Thanks for the link to Sitepoint. I’ll have a look at the free download. I’m just getting to the stage where I have occasional need for Javascript, but really want to make something that works for all users.

Hi Rachel
I’ve read all of your tutorials at dmxzone and have developed a skill of css. Thank you. I am also a PHP programmer (not expert) and I have created several websites using PHP and your tutorial on css.

My sites however lack the structure the DHTML book above talks about - in other words my sites are a jumbled mess of content scripting, and formatting.

What would be good is a complete tutorial (or e-book) on creating a website engine template consisting of php, css, dhtml seperating content from all the above scripting languages.

I am quite proficient in each of these languages but when it comes to pulling it all together into a website, I fail.

There is simply no one book that looks at each of the client and server technologies to create a website template engine to use over and over.

Maybe you and your PHP friends at Sitepoint or DMXZone can make such a book happen.

Cheers,

Naughty, naughty Rachel! Now I’ve gone and ordered it and of course since I didn’t have your CSS book and it was sitting shyly to the side looking so tempting I had to order it too.
(Thanks!)

Nice write up. I’m still waiting for my Amazon order to ship, I’ve been itching to get my hands on this for a month or so now. It’s good to hear the book will have been worth the wait!
