Product Description
The only comprehensive book available that covers the latest technology, such as Internet Explorer 6 and JavaScript 1.5, and JScript 5.6. Packed full of hands-on examples, this book integrates JavaScript with .NET, XML, XSLT, Java, CSS, HTML, Cookies, Security, and much more. Written for beginning to intermediate readers looking to learn how to work with JavaScript and how best to use it with other web technologies.
Inside JavaSriptfills a void between the very beginning and high level books available in bookstores today. It's a book readers want primarily for two reasons: re-usable code and up-to-date browser information. Books currently out on the shelf are not up to the latest in browser technology; thus, frustrating readers because everything done in JavaScript is dependent on browser capabilities. The web site will contain all the source code used in the book.

Reader ReviewsThe book covers Javascript 1.5. This may be the best, most complete book on the market. The messy side of using Javascript is that documentation for it is not complete, anywhere, including Netscape's website. Particularly when you want to see an example detailing how to do something. This book is not complete, in that it doesn't detail every element and function that you can do with Javascript. But when comparing it with the current books on the market, including Danny Goodman's Javascript Bible series, this book is better, deeper, more complete. However, if you have never written any Javascript, this is not the book for you, yet. Get a Goodman book, then this one.
