The tool on the cover of Web Site Measurement Hacks is a combination square, a carpentry tool used primarily to mark and measure 45- and 90 degree angles. Many variations of combination squares are available, but each has the square, used to to measure the accuracy of right angles, as one of its components. While the square may be found in combination with various other tools, the combination square on the cover of Web Site Measurement Hacks has a scribe (for transferring the contours of one item onto another) and a level.

Jamie Peppard was the production editor for Web Site Measurement Hacks. Linley Dolby was the copy editor and Ann Schirmer was the proofreader. Sarah Sherman, Genevieve d'Entremont, and Darren Kelly provided quality control. Angela Howard wrote the index.
