Advanced Javascript, 2nd Edition

JavaScript is a very powerful and easy to use scripting language that runs on both Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer, and can be incorporated into any standard HTML document that will then run in any web browser on any operating system. Because of this platform independence, JavaScript is one of the most widely used web development languages.This revision of Learn Advanced JavaScript Programming focuses on professional-level JavaScript techniques, including the latest developments. The first few chapters review fundamental JavaScript concepts and techniques as well as basic HTML, while the rest of the book discusses advanced techniques including debugging, security, style sheets, and using JavaScript with layers. The appendixes include JavaScript object syntax, the ASCII character set, and a list of online resources.The companion CD contains the HTML source code for all examples referred to throughout the book. It may be hard for some readers to recall a time when the web was not a part of our day-to-day lives.
