Recommended GUI books?
Hi folks, I'm looking for some recommendations on books and articles for coding GUIs.
Two things I'm focusing on:
1. 'Industry standards' for layouts, button names, and expected behavior in a GUI (eg, how should forms resize, is there an expected difference between OK/Close/Apply, etc - the little things that add up for the user).
2. I want to build a network map type pane, but I'm not sure how to go about managing the layout.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you recommend mac book pro or air?
Do you recommend mack book pro or air?
There are many factors that enter into the buying decsion. You have not specified the purpose, intent, budget or usage characteristics needed to make an informed judgement.
Factors include:
Budget
Software that will be used
Need for Ethernet
Need for additonal ports (i.e. extra thunderbolt or HDMI)
Need for built in optical drive
Portability requirements/preference
Disk space requirements
Expandability (RAM, Drive)
Resolution preference
Retina screen yes/no
screen size (if considering MBP 15")
I'm sure I am leaving out a couple. -

Recommendations for Book on Learning Java on Mac OS X Tiger?
Can anyone recommend a book title or two on Learning Java on Mac OS X Tiger? A generic learn-java-book is fine -- it just has to not be Windows-only. ie. the examples or included CD should at least include instructions for running the examples on a JAVA IDE available for other platforms such as Mac OS X (e.g. Eclipse).
Thanks in advance,
...ben
PS. Wish Dave Mark had a Java version of his classic: Learn C on the Macintosh

PB G4 15 1.67 GHz, iBook SE 0.47 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.3)Just download eclipse and do sun's java tutorials. They're very well written and cover pretty much anything you need to do with Java.

Recommendation for Book To Learn Photoshop CS3
I have had Photoshop CS3 for a while now and I still feel like a beginner.Can you recommend a book that would teach me how to edit photos to improve lighting etc. I don't like learning from video programs because you can't look back to revise techniques easily enough.The trouble is I don't use PS often enough to get very good at it so I need to be able to refer to instructions easily. I don't need a complete beginner book but I do need something that isn't full of technical jargon. Can you recommend anything?
EBQuite a few people recommend the classroom in a book series from Adobe. A search on Amazon will provide you with a whole slew of books to choose from. If you scroll the page down far enough you will see comments left by people on their thoughts of the books. Even though you search on Amazon does not mean you have to purchase from them.
Problem with books is trying to read and do at the same time while keeping your page. I really recommend videos since it is so simple to just drag the timeline back to the point you were stuck at.

Can anyone recommend e-book reader app for mac os10.8.5
Hi
Im trying to find an app to use for e-books from public library and other free e-book resources. I am not ready to update to Mavericks which uses ibook app because I am waiting for some of the glitches ie printing, accessibility - dragon dicitate and all the problems reported by the support community discussions.
Personally I am not happy with ios 7 changes and I am reluctant to upgrade mac notebook and desktop. So I am being very cautious to make mac os changes especially when my printer being older model may or may not work and reports of dragon dictate, ms office and all the programs that are costly to replace.
I have vision problems and he ability to read an e-book both on and off line on a large screen would open a world of possibilies. While I like audiobooks nothing replaces seeing the words on a page and reading them to myself !
So when recommending an app please let me know how well it can increase font size, differentiate colors, and bookmark pages.
The ease of scolling and pagination in an e-book is important with my handicap.
I am financially unable to invest in purchasing apps that are more then $5.00 nor am I am to buy an e-reader like an ipad or other brands.
I know I could use a pdf app but the page flow of a pdf file is not visually appealing. I also find it hard to find where I left off reading.
Thank you in advance for your helpThanks very much. That fixed the problem.
Best Regards

Please recommend a book for basic CSS learning
I have "CSS The Missing Manual" and even though I'd say it's
a great book. It does not tell you "how to."
All the books I have read gives you templates, I want to
"know how it was done." Seeing a template already made up does not
show you how to build your own. Yea you can can look at the codes
in the Dreamweaver templates but what happens if you want to build
your own? Why was this DIV placed here? How do I create another
Column?
There are so much I'm not learning.
I am looking for a book that will assume I know nothing about
CSS and tells me, "to make an elastic layout, do this." "To make a
liquid layout do this, write this, use these tags."
Any recommendations? Please help.
I would like to go to school for this, but can't afford it at
the moment.

Recommend a book on Illustrator....
I know there are zillions of online tutorials, but I like to have a hard copy book for learning software. I tend to look online to solve specific problems or needs I may have at a given time, but reading through a book I learn things more organically. Besides, I like to be able to look at a page.
To give you an idea what I'm looking for:
I've been using Illustrator off and on for a few years, and increasingly so over the past year, but I still come across pretty basic stuff that I don't know. So I'm somewhere between absolute beginner and intermediate, but I can use something pretty foundational.
Additionally, I'm still using CS3, so although I will likely upgrade at some point, I don't want a resource that spends half its time on CS5 features. It's much more important for me to get help learning and mastering the more legacy tools.
I know I could buy a zillion books, but don't have that kind of time or money, so want to focus on one or two that would meet my needs.
Some of the books I've looked at on Amazon that seemed interesting for my purposes are below:
CS4 Bible by Alspach: http://www.amazon.com/Illustrator-CS4-Bible-Ted-Alspach/dp/0470345195/
Adobe Illustrator CS4 How-Tos: 100 Essential Techniques by Karlins: http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Illustrator-CS4-How-Tos-Techniques/dp/0321562909
Illustrator CS5 Digital Classroom by Smith et al: http://www.amazon.com/Illustrator-Digital-Classroom-Video-Training/dp/0470607831
Illustrator CS5 Visual QuickStart Guide by Weinmann and Lourekas: http://www.amazon.com/Illustrator-CS5-Windows-Macintosh-QuickStart/dp/0321706617
Real World Adobe Illustrator CS5 by Golding: http://www.amazon.com/Real-World-Adobe-Illustrator-CS5/dp/0321713060
Adobe Illustrator CS5 On Demand by Johnson: http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Illustrator-Demand-Steve-Johnson/dp/0789744457/
Of the above, I'm leaning most toward the Visual QuickStart Guide (a series I've used with profit before) and Real World (the description and reviews sound promising) but would like others to weigh in.
This book also sounds like something I could use, but hesitate to get it unless I can find one Illustrator-centric book that pretty much meets my needs by itself:
Vector Basic Training by Glistschka: http://www.amazon.com/Vector-Basic-Training-Systematic-Precision/dp/0321749596/
Any thoughts from experience would be much appreciated.I only know one of the books mentioned above, which is the Real World one. I can very much recommend it, because it teaches the basic principles of Illustrator, but I can't compare it to the other ones.
As for the versions: I wouldn't recommend using a CS5 book to learn CS3. Too much has changed. It's not only functions that have been added, but stuff like the meaning of the ALT key in the pathfinder panel. If you can live with getting confused from time to time, OK... -
Recommend good books for learning java?
im using Java How to Program, Deitel&deitel.
i find it all right.
what do u think about this one?
can u recommend any other?
NatashaThere's a lot of online reference available, too:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/j.title.doc.html
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/index.html
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html
There's links to all the online documentation, as well as to a few recommended books that you can buy, at:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/index.html
As for specific book, sorry I can't help you. I personally learned a lot more Java by browsing through the API reference than I did by checking out coding examples. But that might only be because I already had a decent background in programming when I started. If you start Java as your first programming language, then an example and explanation filled book would be really useful. Like I said, sorry about not being able to provide any solid recommendations.
Hope that helps though. Check out those links, they are pretty useful. The tutorial is pretty helpful sometimes, too.

Recommended e-book readers windows 8.1
Adobe Digital Editions is a little clunky, compared to Aldiko, for instance, which I use on my Android tablet. Does anyone recommend an e-book (epub and pdf) reader for Windows 8.1 that works with DRM protected books, in other words, books I purchase, as opposed to just free books?
Hi Kev240,
I have just tried it out and if you have IE 11 (which comes with Win 8.1) then some of the font and formatting feature won't work due to IE's compatibility settings. You may need to add the domain yahoo.com to the IE's list of "Compatibility View settings".
Go to http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11 for more info on how to add websites to IE's Compatibility View list.
Though if you use another browser like Chrome, Firefox, ect... then there doesn't seem to be an issue.
However BT Retail will be moving their existing BT Retail broadband customers away from the BTYahoo platform and system to the new BT Mail system and platform soon. Go to http://bt.com/newemail for more info on this.

ERRORS IN RECOMMENDED JSTL BOOK & A BETTER TUTORIAL
Hello,
I think that my tutorial on JSTL in :
http://in.geocities.com/rsramsam/jstl.htm
is far better , hands-on and comprehensive than the recommended books by SUN.
Some typos have been corrected in Rick's site.
http://www.learntechnology.net
Kindly use this tutorial on JSTL instead of the buggy and long-winding books.
RSRThoughts:
This first link was very difficult to read.
The second link is in a much more readable format than the first.
The tutorial seems to cover JSTL1.0 only, and not the newer JSTL1.1 and how it integrates with JSP2.0.
In fact the author refers to a JSP book for having an "error" using the JSTL1.1 uri, as opposed to the JSTL1.0. If you don't have that basic understanding, then you lose my vote at this point.
Try reading
[url http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=628740] This post and
[url http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=629437&tstart=0] this post on the differences between JSTL1.0 and JSTL1.1.
It has a few good basic examples, but I don't think it is anything special.
For really learning JSTL I would recommend getting the specification from [url http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/jstl/index.jsp] here
It is quite readable and an excellent reference on how the tags actually work
Cheers,
