Can anyone guide me to a good site for the special linear group $SL(2,R)$, especially one that goes deep into its subgroup and normal subgroup? Book recommendations would be great too.

2Probably not really what you're looking for, but it came to mind because I read it recently: http://www.springerlink.com/content/k7585171n6341825/fulltext.pdf It's only really concerened with representation theory in order to do some harmonic analysis, but hopefully you'll find something of interest there. – 2012-10-26

Read $SL_2(R)$ by Serge Lang. The title is exactly the topic you are looking for!
