Hello All..

I am going to be starting a job soon p/t while I am finishing school, working with a webservices guy, and I know how html, javascript. But I don't know much about xml, and I was thinking about investing ina book to enhance my knowledge or prepare me more. Any recommendations? or any books good for touching up skills on web programming?

Thanks

Elizabeth Castro's "HTML for the WWW with XHTML and CSS" published by Peachpit Press is a great book. It does not have XML, but XHTML which helps. This was the first book I started with and have progressed through Peachpit's Visual Quick Start Guide series (which this book is in) and have learned quite alot. This book is a great reference and also great for a beginner.

That is one thing that is great about the Visual Quick Start guides, the give a lot of information, explain it well, and do it all at a good price. If your looking to expand your knowledge of web design, I suggest checking out some of the other books in the series.
