About this title

Synopsis

JavaScript is the language of the Web. It has an intuitive, accessible nature and is available with most modern browsers. JavaScript is used for making dynamic, interactive web pages - from form validation to creating games to dynamic menus - but its uses also go much further. Hardly a single commercial web page exists today that does not contain some JavaScript.

This second edition of Professional JavaScript provides comprehensive coverage of the JavaScript language, its syntax and uses. We look at the latest web browsers and web standards, and move on to examine practical techniques in the form of short examples and more in-depth and complex case studies. This book will focus entirely on the use of JavaScript within the web browser, since this is predominantly where it is used.

This book covers

Core JavaScript programming
Scripting browser objects
Working with multimedia
Web standards, including XML, CSS, & W3C DOM
Dynamic HTML
Debugging techniques
Regular expressions and form validation
Real world case studies
The ECMAScript Edition 4 proposal

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.
