Introduction to Web Programming

Many developers and programmers face the dilemma of how to begin a web development project. While many developers can create extensive desktop applications with ease, they are not well versed in creating web applications. Most developers have some level of familiarity with HTML as well as the deployment of static pages on web servers.
