*Features* Cover Type: Paperback with 1200 pages Published by: Wiley Edition: 6th Edition April 9, 2007 Written in: English ISBN 10 Number: 0470069163 ISBN 13 Number: 978-0470069165 Book Dimensions: 9.3 x 7.5 x 2.6 inches Weighs: 3.4 pounds *Product Review* "exhaustive update to the Bible series." (.net, August 2007) *Product Description* Make your Web pages stand out above the noise with JavaScript and the expert instruction in this much-anticipated update to the bestselling JavaScript Bible. With renowned JavaScript expert Danny Goodman at your side, you’ll get a thorough grounding in JavaScript basics, see how it fits with current Web browsers, and find all the soup-to-nuts detail you’ll need. Whether you’re a veteran programmer or just starting out, this is the JavaScript book Web developers turn to again and again. Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file. *Reader Reviews* I have a few javascript books already, but they are out of date. I bought this book, which claims to be published in 2007, to learn to be more DOM and W3C compliant. However, from reading this book so far, I find that the material in it are as outdated as my older books. For example, the book still encourages the use of the "innerHTML" method, which is neither a W3C recommendation, nor is it encouraged anymore. Furthermore, the book shows you to convert a "number" type to a string by doing this: var num = 100; num = "" + num; That's just silly. What happened to the toString() method? How about doing this? var num = 100; num = num.toString(); Also the book doesn't encourage separation of structure from functionality. The book's examples have javascript all mixed together with the markup. This is clearly not the modern, correct, and recommended way to script a web page. So far, these are the gripes I have about this book... and I'm only on chapter 6. It makes me feel like I don't want to finish this book, because I might adopt these outdated methods of scripting. I do not recommend this book. Back To Top
