Synopsis
You should read this book if you want to be able to take your Internet Explorer scripting - and your web pages - to a new level of sophistication. Object-oriented programming is the programming trend of the now, and JavaScript is well adapted to be a part of this trend. To get the most out of this book, a basic knowledge of JavaScript is helpful but not essential. You should also be reasonably familiar with HTML and stylesheets. However, we have included some tips on how they work in our examples, and a comprehensive reference section. Programmers from other languages, such as C++ or Java, as well as users of other flavors of JavaScript, who are looking to mimic some of the power and versatility of these languages in their JavaScript code will find this book invaluable. This is a book of JavaScript tools and projects for people who make web pages, and the programmers and future programmers who work with them. It can be used for self study, for web authoring, for web application programming, and as a textbook in a college course on "Object-Oriented Programming in JavaScript."

Review
As a browser-based scripting language Javascript rules supreme, allowing programmers and page designers to add new levels of ineractivity to their sites through the introduction of short programming scripts. But anyone who has rejected the language as being of little use for anything more serious should take time out to read this technical yet eye-opening examination of the latest version of the language.
Designed with Microsoft's Internet Explorer in mind (Netscape users beware, the majority of the code will not work with your browser), authors Alexander Nakhimovsky and Tom Myers present a very different view of matters, opening up the chest cavity to get right into the heart of Javascript using objects and Object-oriented techniques to show just how powerful it can be.
Starting with a short, yet very useful, reference of the basics, Javascript Objects soon launches into the good stuff, presenting examples and insights into a broad range of subjects ranging from use of regular expressions through to advanced text handling and database interrogation techniques.
At first glance it would seem to be a great book for beginners and experts but in truth the going may be a little tough for those with no previous programming experience. That said, Javascript Objects opens whole new vistas of opportunity for those who have previously dismissed JavaScript as "poor man's Java".
