Castro, E. (2007)
HTML, XHTML and CSS: visual quickstart guide. 6th ed. Berkeley, CA: Peachpit Press. - a comprehensive guide that helped me out in writing HTML and CSS for this module, pitched at a fairly advanced level for people who already have some familiarity with the technologies but wish to take their skills further.

Flickr (2009) [Online] Available from:
http://www.flickr.com - a Web 2.0 site containing a vast amount of images. The image of the typewriter keys used in my header was taken by Jetheriot and is available for manipulation under a Creative Commons licence.

Freeman, E. (2006)
Head First HTML with CSS and XHTML. Farnham: O'Reilly. - a lively introduction to HTML and CSS, with an emphasis on creating valid websites which are cross-browser compatible. Good for absolute beginners, although I have been using HTML and CSS for several years and learned plenty of new skills from this book.

http://www.gimp.org/- a freely distributed image manipulation programme for raster graphics.

Moncur, M. (2006)
Sams teach yourself JavaScript in 24 hours. 3rd ed. Hemel Hampstead: Prentice Hall. - a little bit too detailed for what I needed to know for this module, and JavaScript requires so much practice I doubt anyone could learn it in 24 hours, but this book certainly helped me with Exercise 3.9.

nsftools.com (unknown)

[Online] Available from: http://colorschemedesigner.com/ - very useful website for creating visually appealing colour schemes, allowing you to preview how text will appear on a page, and tweaking with the contrast, brightness and intensity of schemes. You can either pick a colour, or enter a hex code of a colour you wish to base your site around.

Whatis.com (2009) [Online] Available from:
http://whatis.techtarget.com/ - somewhat laden with advertisments, but a useful primer on providing succinct definitions and clarifying the concepts learned during lectures.

W3Schools (2009)
