The root of all things WWW is the W3C: http://w3.org/

The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) is an Open Source community project developing software tools and knowledge based documentation that helps people secure web applications and web services. At this point it looks as if their most important document is The OWASP Guide to Building Secure Web Applications and Web Services.

JavaScript

I'm not sure that I like javascript, but it looks as if a good approach is to use a library which hides browser incompatibility. Like RelativeLayers http://relativelayers.sourceforge.net/

A guy at work likes these sites for javascript: http://www.javascriptkit.com/ (used to be called website abstraction) and http://www.js-examples.com.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/jscalendar - very nice popup JS calendar, works only with modern browsers (IE 6/Moz). LGPL.

http://mojavelinux.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6 - Javascript popup calendar for date input on web pages. Claims to be work with many browsers.

OpenThought - This project uses an interesting twist on the standard web paradigm: it downloads a page once and then uses javascript and DHTML to stream changes into the page. You never have to refresh the page. Cute. http://www.openthought.net/

Here's an article that uses applets as proxies for javascript. It's an interesting approach that keeps the applets small but allows you to use database data to refresh web pages.

http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/index.html - advanced css positioning

http://www.tripi.com/arrowhead/ - this is a Java Servlet application that supports simple VBScript ASP syntax. Might be useful if I ever wanted to move an ASP application into a more open environment.

http://asp2php.naken.cc/ - an ASP/VBScript to PHP converter.

http://style.tigris.org/ - a set of open-source CSS stylesheets. A really cool idea.

http://gallery.theopalgroup.com/selectoracle/ - a tool that parses and explains CSS selectors.

http://www.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/quirks/ - explains the different ways that Mozilla renders web pages and how to choose which one gets used.

http://www.xrampssl.com/ - an alternative digital certificate provider.

Fast Web Services - when XML costs too much - http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/WebServices/fastWS/

Browser Caching - Internet Explorer has badly broken cache behavior, but this appnote can help you work around it: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/Q234/0/67.ASP&NoWebContent=1&NoWebContent=1
