JavaScript Bible

by Danny Goodman

Expanded and enhanced from the second edition, the third edition of this title covers the powerful functionality JavaScript gains with releases from Netscape Navigator 4 and Internet Explorer 4. The book features ready-to-use JavaScript applications and additional JavaScript and Web page routines. As with the last edition, this book should bring non-professionals, including casual programmers and scripters, up-to-speed on all aspects of mastering JavaScript. This includes programming fundamentals, JavaScript language elements and how to use them effectively, and how to add functionality to HTML documents and Java applets. JavaScript comes built-in on Netscape servers and with every version of Netscape Navigator. It is functional on any Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer Web page. The enclosed Windows/Mac CD-ROM includes over 100 sample scripts from the book, Web page templates, an on-screen quick-reference in Apple Guide WinHelp and HTML formats, as well as hundreds of megabytes of useable Web design elements and software.
