From the Publisher:
This book is for anyone who needs to use JavaScript for client-side web development. You may already be familiar with JavaScript, and need an up-to-date advanced guide, or have experience in another programming language and need to pick up JavaScript as a new skill.
Synopsis:
JavaScript is the language of the web, used in programming all the major browsers. It is a powerful scripting language that lets web developers produce more powerful, more user-friendly and more interactive web pages, and with the release of the Version 5 browsers its power will become even greater. JavaScript is not just for client-side, however; it's increasingly finding favour as a server side programming language- in Microsoft's ASP technology- and as a programming language for administration tasks with applications such as the Windows Scripting Host. This book covers the broad spectrum of programming JavaScript - from the core language to browser applications and server-side use to stand-alone and embedded JavaScript. It includes a guide to the language - when where and how to get the most out of JavaScript - together with practical case studies demonstrating JavaScript in action. Coverage is up-to-date, with discussion of compatability issues and version differences, and the book concludes with a comprehensive reference section.
