I perhaps unfortunately can't really recommend any books on the subject.
I think the last actual book I read on programming in anything even
vaguely similar to page-by-page fashion was the ColdFusion Developer's
Guide for version 3 from Allaire that came with the software. Before
that it was C++ for Dummies and Programming Windows 95 for Dummies.
Since then I've read through a chapter on FLIP from one of the more
popular CF books, but really what I know about anything later than CF3,
Regular Expressions, Flash and XML I've read from online documentation
like the Macromedia / Adobe livedocs, the MSDN Library or the W3Schools
site and from mailing lists. I will say that I found the W3Schools site
pretty helpful as a reference for familiarizing myself with the tags and
functions in XPath and XSLT. I turn to the MSDN Library similarly when I
have questions about HTML, CSS or DOM.
