Acknowledgments

I MUST FIRST THANK THE PEOPLE who gave me the opportunity to work on this, my first book: Nicholas Zakas for recommending me and Scott Meyers for taking his advice.

Thanks also to my editor for being so patient with me. Thanks Tom.

Many thanks also to my tech editor and friend, Steve Webster. Possibly the smartest web developer I have had the pleasure of working with.

Finally, love and thanks to all of my family, especially to my parents, who set me on my path by buying me my first computer and supporting me no matter what.
