A Guide to JavaScript

by Don Gosselin

Published 16 December 1999
This text is designed for the novice and assumes no knowledge of programming, JavaScript, or HTML. JavaScript offers an introduction to the fundamental concepts of programming in a straightforward manner. In addition, since JavaScript is object-based (but not object-oriented), it again provides an excellent introduction to the more complex concepts inherent in a true object-oriented language.

JavaScript

Published 10 December 2001
A popular scripting language that is widely supported in Web browsers and other Web tools, JavaScript adds interactive functions to HTML pages. This exciting new edition focuses on ECMAScript Edition 3, which is compatible with both Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 (and later) and Netscape 6.0 (and later). This text also discusses the Document Object Model (DOM) specification published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). In keeping with the success of the previous edition, this book features hands-on projects, a step-by-step methodology, as well as additional end-of-chapter exercises.
