Beginning XHTML, CSS, and JavaScript covers all the major front-end web development topics: XHTML, CSS, and JavaScript (and AJA X) whereas most competitorsjust cover HTML and CSS. Coding practices such as designing for larger screensizes (around 980 px wide is now industry standard), designing for more recent browsers (and the features they offer), increased use of technologies such as AJAX, and the way that CSS is often split into multiple style sheets (e.g. separate files for layout, typography, colors, forms, etc.) provide the reader with up-to-date knowledge. Special checklists / mini-appendices remind people of the key topics and where they are covered in the book and will be very helpful for reference purposes. Flow and visual impact of screen shots are optimized as well as copious examples. There is also coverage of mobile devices.

The way in which popular devices interpret web pages will be covered, along with real-lifeexamples, which will help educate readers in the best practices of designing for multiple devices. The book shows key topics such as: accessibility, usability, search engine optimization, and analytics along the way with handy references that describe where these topics are covered throughout the book current web standards and browsers such as IE8 and FF3, as well as Google's Chrome (not older ways of coding to work with legacy browsers) and features latest practices for things like screen sizes, CSS techniques and AJAX There is also coverage of mobile devices.
