Web Scripting and Authoring Book

Does your book have 10 chapters missing? Did you pay $1300 for a 4 year old dell laptop? Tired of the old desktops and slow network?

Web Scripting and Authoring Book

Postby krynd » June 22nd, 2008, 9:28 pm

Has anyone else noticed that this book is just a custom version of "Sams Teach Yourself Web Authoring with HTML and XHTML in 21 Days"? I find it funny that a place of "higher learning" is using a beginner's book to teach a class.

Worse yet, the C++ book (the Deidl one) is also a beginner's book, as well as the VB book. Of course, since the Deidl book was so bad, my class (C++ II) actually ended up buying a "in 21 days" book to teach ourselves the class. We ended up doing this for Java as well.

[sarcasm]Yes, ITT provides a quality education[/sarcasm]
I tell everyone who asks me "is ITT a good school?", "can you afford to go anywhere else? If so, then go. I must be one of 5 students who doesn't have a piercing or tatoo of some sort".

lol well the ONLY book i got that actually exists outside of ITT, and i can confirm it is used by other schools is the C++ book, well not exactly that book. I had a java class at a community college (really cool and good one) and it used the same publisher's java book, pretty much same cover design too. It was better than the c++.
If you don't like it, MOD IT!
