If your looking for Linux books, "Linux Server Hacks" or "Liux Desktop Hacks" put out by O'Reilly have really been valuable.
My copy of "PHP Phrasebook" by Christian Wenz is in need of repairs already. It just came out two months ago. (Apache Phrasebook is due to follow soon).
"Css Pocket Reference 2e" by Eric Meyer (O'Reilly) is not organized very well, but again, I've used it so much already that it needs to be rebound.
How about a subscription to a magazine like "Linux User & Developer" or "Linux Magazine". (Oh, can somebody tip my wife off on that idea, please!)
And there is a fantastic book that I really want for Christmas, "Linux Toys: 13Cool Projects for Home, Office and Entertainment " by Christopher Negus. "Projects include transforming an answering machine into an e-mail converter, building an MP3 music jukebox, building a car entertainment center, and creating a TV video recorder/player."
I've done the HTML, XML and PHP as a hobbiest. (DHTML and DOM I suppose by association).
Can you answer me this question. Is there any other way to work this method/model without javascript?
Because really, JAVA? No no... I would rather bash my head into a brick wall. Maybe it's just me, but I've never really liked JavaScript. Or I've never been able to get my head around it, over it, under it or through it.
Set two layers, one on top of the other. Insert your background image with a regular img tag width=100% and layer the second on top of it with background: transparent. Set the width's of each to 100%. It'll work in FF or IE, probably not both. As for Opera, my guess is that it will open your drink holder.
Ah yes, but doesn't something like this make great face for investors who couldn't otherwise tie their own shoes with first throwing out a buzz word for tying ones own shoes. I forget, what is the buzz word for someone who learned to tie thier own shoes?
The one time I managed this feat it was with a cheap cheap fibreglass arrow. The receiving arrow snapped about 3 inches from the nock. I still have that one.
This sounds like a whole heap of, "Linux would be so much better if it was more like Windows" rhetoric. I can't stand that thought. Much like I can't stand Windows.
This entire article was a waste of time. I don't read/. for this. Can anyone explain how this is topical "News for Nerds". I can see this as news for Taco, I can see this as news for Taco's friends. I can't see, however, why/how this is news for anyone else?
How about using the right tool for the right job? how about not giving me the statistics without also giving me the methodology? (And the bias behind them?)
PHP is a nice, lovely, wonderful tool which I use a great deal.
Java is a tool that I use as well.
Sometimes knowing both get's the job done better than knowing only one. But saying that everything shold be done in PHP or everything should be done in JAVA is about as bogus as giving statistics on the usage of web sites employing one or the other.
Are you counting each web site running Wordpress as a web site that uses PHP?
I would hate to try and use 100% Java to do a blog interface - I would, however, employ a Java wysiwyg editor.
Using a coffee mug to tap a nail into a wall to hang a picture will work, but I wouldn't want to build a fence with one. I certainly wouldn't want to drink coffee out of a hammer.
For a moment there I thought you were going to launch into a treatise on circular logic and reference St. Thomas Aquinas.
You almost had it, and then spoiled it by first failing to point out the flaw inherent in such circular logic and then moving on to create an entirely new position based on the same fallable logic structure.
The reason I am pointing this out is simply because this article above deals with a circular arguement that is very old.
To paraphrase, "Is art reflecting society or is society reflected in it's art."
To compare this thought to the article, "Are video games violent because society is violent or is society violent because video games are violent".
To paraphrase your arguement, "God is good because he does bad things".
I find it funny that you will damn the structure of an arguement and then employ that same structure in your own arguement - all the while examplifying the point of the post and the point of the article to which this post relates.
Circular logic is flawed because it is based on an assumption - not proof. You can logic out anything as far as you want to, but if you're basing it all on one assumption to begin with - you have nothing but a "well written article".
You can configure KDE to look more like the Mac OS. All except the wonderfully scrolling and animated application bar at the bottom. And let's not forget what OSX runs on top of.

Lost = Twin Peeks + The Island of Dr. Moreau.
Move along... nothing to see here. We all already know who killed Laura Palmer.

So Uncle Sam is recruiting hackers now?
Arrest them, detain them without trial, review their resume, draft them...
I'll write the script, anyone else want to pitch in?
"and also includes a GPS tracking device if the dog doesn't respond to the call"
Because if you can't train your dog to "stay", it's so much easier to train him to answer a cell phone? This was thought up by an MBA wasn't it?
That's a good arguement. Well said. But I think they recognize that those kids will turn 18 at some point and get credit cards...
Finally... Someone's saying, "Windows would be better if it was more like Linux"... instead of all the other back***wards rhetoric out there.
Q. "where do you want to go today?"
A. Linux.
And this is news? Shoot, I played Qbert years ago!
Oh, you said qubit...
the new anti-virus application known as Windows OneCare Live"
What's in a name indeed... "OneCare"... I know what that one care is. $$$$$

Can I get that as a bumper sticker?
I sure hope my mom will buy me Vista for Christmas.
I'm 12.
Ah yes, but doesn't something like this make great face for investors who couldn't otherwise tie their own shoes with first throwing out a buzz word for tying ones own shoes. I forget, what is the buzz word for someone who learned to tie thier own shoes?
MBA??
If it has Java in the title anywhere... I'll pass. It probably has a PDF plugin as well.

"Are there any myths that the network won't let you have a crack at? "
That is an excellent question! Mod it up!
So what you're saying is, if Linux doesn't scratch your itch, go build a linux yourself? By way of reply I must say, Windows gives me a rash.
This sounds like a whole heap of, "Linux would be so much better if it was more like Windows" rhetoric. I can't stand that thought. Much like I can't stand Windows.

I'll finally be able to complete my set of coasters. What drivel.

Yes... just like "light" cigarettes are "lighter" than the same brands "regular" cigarettes.
The new Windows will be more secure (than the last Windows) and the new Red Hat will be more secure (than the last Red Hat).
Does this effort make either of them the most secure on the market with respect to all other OS's (or is that OSi ?) available?
Not by a long shot.
