Creating a Website: The Missing Manual Review: Excellent All In One Reference for Website Design - I have been designing web sites for four years and I have collected over a dozen books on website design. Only one other comes close to being this clear and comprehensive as an introductory manual. It is much improved over the 2011 version too. It covers the entire process of website design, selecting a development tool, finding a provider, an introduction to html programming, and finally, dealing with AJAX and JavaScript interaction with the website. There is a goodly amount of material concerning the details of successfully completing each step in the process. I learned several things that I hadn't seen in reading website design books for four years. Even at this late date it has made me a better website programmer and I recommend it for all beginning website designers. Review: Great for In-depth Understanding with Hands-on Learning - Plenty of useful information that I used to create and enhance my club's website. The on-line examples made it easier to see and do; best way to learn, IMHO. Lots of pointers to other references that might be needed. Sometimes, I thought it might be a shameless plug for a companion book from the series, but, for the most part, the presented material was as stated and quite useful. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,273,469 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #27 in XHTML Software Programming Computer #253 in Search Engine Optimization #398 in JavaScript Programming (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (66) | | Dimensions | 6.9 x 1.3 x 9.2 inches | | Edition | 4th | | ISBN-10 | 1491918071 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1491918074 | | Item Weight | 2 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 622 pages | | Publication date | July 28, 2015 | | Publisher | O'Reilly Media | ## Images ![Creating a Website: The Missing Manual - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81eXz4vZgfL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent All In One Reference for Website Design *by R***K on August 8, 2015* I have been designing web sites for four years and I have collected over a dozen books on website design.

The on-line examples made it easier to see and do; best way to learn, IMHO. Lots of pointers to other references that might be needed. Sometimes, I thought it might be a shameless plug for a companion book from the series, but, for the most part, the presented material was as stated and quite useful. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Creating a Website: The Missing Manual by Mathew MacDonald *by C***G on June 2, 2017* I ordered and received this book, in about four days. I and my daughter want to create our own websites and sell our products. We have a lot to learn at this time, as I have not created a web page since I used Microsoft Publisher in years past. This book is about 600 pages, counting the index in the back which is helpful and includes HTML Semantic Elements & Character Entities in the Appendix. The 4 parts of the book and from creating a webpage in Part 1, the chapters flow from a basic introduction and then the HTML language is inserted so you can create that first page on your computer, that will be the beginning of your website and included therein. There is a lot to start learning, but if that 20 year old with all the facial hair and tattoos can learn it, so can I. Good luck to me and if I find this book as helpful as it seems with my first reading, I will come back and give it another star. I like it so far and have learned a lot in my beginnings of developing my own website. ## Frequently Bought Together - Creating a Website: The Missing Manual - Building Websites All-in-One For Dummies --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/16095658-creating-a-website-the-missing-manual](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/16095658-creating-a-website-the-missing-manual) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
