Summary: It's just too good to be true...
Comment: This book helped me more on HTML 3 than any other book has. I paid upwards of $50 for other HTML books and this one is cheaper and twice as easy. Javascript, Java, HTML code, and the in's and out's of the internet are explain with samples and things to watch out for.

Summary: An excellent reference guide.
Comment: If you want to learn the ins and outs of Netscape Navigator Gold, this is the book for you. There are lots of "goodies" that the average person will not find just by using Netscape's browser capabilities.
This isn't the sort of book you read cover-to-cover. It's more like a box of Whitman's chocolates. The reader is inclined to sample various points in different chapters, and for this reason, this book is a better reference than it is straight reading material.
The information on Gold's web editing capabilites is excellent, and is much clearer than Netscape's documentation. It was worth trying because this feature can save a web designer a tremendous amout of time by eliminating the typing of hyperlinks on a listed page. The book plainly notes that the web designer will still have to polish the page on a text editor, and I was grateful for the honesty.
The section on JavaScript is vague. You are much better off buying the Dansesh book (Teach Yourself Javascript 1.1 in a Week) or the O'Reilly book if you want to learn JavaScript. However, the chapters on JavaScript in "Netscape Navigator Gold 3.0" can serve as a useful introduction.
Overall, this is still the best reference that I have seen on Netscape products.

Summary: Absolutely the "bestest" book for Gold 3.0 in the world!
Comment: I'm a brand new PC learner (having "graduated" from a Mac!), and just got on the internet late last summer. This book is the best one I could've ever gotten, so easy to understand and use! There are no hard concepts to try to figure out, and his sense of humor is just great. He spells everything out step by step; even a child could understand and follow his instructions. He explains to the nth degree, and makes it all so clear that within a couple of hours, my web pages were done! (Not too bad for a lady in her 50's!!) He makes it all so simple and enjoyable, which it should be! His writing style is so great, that I will be looking for other books by him for other programs. Alan Simpson gets my heartfelt thanks for doing a masterful job!!
