Web scripting, XML, game development, and mobile devices. Some of
Michael’s notable writing projects include Faster Smarter
HTML and XML, Teach Yourself HTML & CSS in 24 Hours,

Paul Novitski has been writing software as a freelance
programmer since 1981. He once taught himself BASIC in order to
write a machine language disassembler so that he could lovingly
hack Wang’s OIS microcode. He has focused on internet
programming since the late ’90s. His company, Juniper
Webcraft, produces HTML-strict websites featuring accessible,
semantic markup, separation of development layers, and intuitive
user interfaces. He knows the righteousness of elegant code, the
poignancy of living on the bleeding edge of wilderness, the sweet
melancholy of mbira music, and the scorching joy of raising twin
boys.
Tia Gustaff Rayl is a consultant who does development and
training in database and Web technologies. Most recently she has
published courseware for XHTML, CSS, Java Script, and SQL. It comes
as no surprise to those who know her that she began her software
career with degrees in English and Education from the University of
Florida. As is usual for most newcomers to the field, her
introduction to computing was maintaining software. She went on to
a long-standing career in the software industry in full life cycle
system, application, and database development; project management;
and training for PC and mainframe environments. In the mid-nineties
she worked on early Web-enabled database applications, adding
Java Script to her repertoire. She continues to take on development
projects to maintain her code-slinging skills. If she had any spare
time (and money) she would go on an around-the-world cruise with
her husband and two dogs.
