What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

I was (am) really surprised with this book because not only lays out the basics of a mobile app but ensures the reader gets the whole scope of a complete one, making sure one uses the right tools, from the IDE (Aptana) which also was a nice surprise (I used it around 4 years ago) to the Android Developer Tools and Apache Cordova and even NodeJs. Of course this book is intended for a seasoned developer (which I'm not) or at least someone (like myself) familiar with the technologies / frameworks mentioned, and / or in the process of creating or learning to create an app.

Loved it! jQuery is used by millions of websites to to write javascript that would take many lines of code to produce without this terrific library. jQuery mobile does the same and more for mobile development. Mastering jQuery Mobile walks readers through projects that can be used on iOS, Android, and more.

I have been learning jquery mobile for the past few weeks using online tutorials. I found most of them confusing because they assume I already know a lot of the basics of how jquery mobile works. I decided to order this book hoping it would take me step by step from the beginning. I received the book a few days ago and have been following along chapter by chapter and I have not been disappointed yet. It provides me a lot of information about the ideas and concepts around jquery mobile which makes a BIG difference. I feel like I am finally starting to get the full concept of how jquery mobile works. I'm only half way through the book and loving it! I would recommend this book to anyone that is just started learning jquery mobile or that has been using it for some time and is looking to get a good idea of how the foundation of jquery mobile works.

This book is awesome, really easy to learn, and improved my skills.If you are looking for a book that's easy to read and is a great book then this is the book for you.

This book offers an advanced guide to developing with jQuery Mobile, using the latest versions of the jQuery Mobile and jQuery libraries. The book presents real world examples and assumes some knowledge of CSS3, HTML5 and Javascript (jQuery). Examples are given for both multi-page and single-page templates. There is also an excellent guide to creating web apps with Cordova, both for iOS and Android. It's a good source of reference for responsive layout design with JQM (works fine with desktops too). Also welcome is the coverage of HTML5 features using modernizr and Wurfl for device detection. The data examples are PHP-centric, but are clearly written and easy to understand. More advanced is the discussion of getting jQuery Mobile to play nicely with Node.js, Express and Jade templates. The book also offers a very useful discussion on 'best practice' in mobile design and delivery. The examples provided are managed using Aptana studio, but this isn't required and the complete source code is available for download anyway. All in all the book offers an extensive coverage of the practical possibilities of JQM and one I'd highly recommend.
