Acknowledgments
No author could complete a book without a small army of helpful individuals. I’m deeply indebted to the whole Missing Manual team, especially my editor, Peter McKie, who kept me on track with relatively gentle prodding, and HTML-whiz tech reviewer Shelley Powers, who lent her keen insight about all things web-related. I also owe a hearty thanks to those who left their mark on the previous editions of this book, including Sarah Milstein, Peter Meyers, and tech reviewers Jim Goodenough, Rhea Howard, Mark Levitt, Tony Ruscoe, and Megan Sorensen. As always, I’m also deeply indebted to numerous others who toiled behind the scenes indexing pages, drawing figures, and proofreading the final copy.
Finally, I’d never write any book without the support of my parents, Nora and Paul, my extended parents, Razia and Hamid, and my wife, Faria. (I’d probably write many more without the challenges of my two lovable daughters, Maya and Brenna.) Thanks everyone!
