I always check www.zvon.org, especially the references section.

You could edit the main question itself. Add your sites in the same format, with one link per subject on the site, so people can easily understand whats available on the site.

Although its really slow (server speed?) and sparsely filled. SitePoint is much better and gives you browser compatibility per article.

For the DOM, I agree that SitePoint is more useful. But the MDC is invaluable for info on the JavaScript natives (such as "Array") and their methods (such as Array's "indexOf"). As of writing, the SitePoint reference doesn't seem to have any information on this.

MSDN has a lot of reference materials for web development. It contains only IE-specific information which can be either an advantage or a disadvantage depending on what you are looking for. Here are direct links to the HTML/CSS (includes DOM), JScript (Microsoft flavor of ECMAScript aka JavaScript) and VBScript. The documentation is very well written, and is a great source for answers to DOM/JavaScript questions, since they tend to be mostly the same across browsers.

Also, as references go, let's not forget the official specifications for HTML, CSS, and the myriad of other standards specified by W3C.
