Customer Reviews & Comments
Do you want to become a Javascript MASTER? Then get this book. I don't know why this book is getting bad reviews, but I think it's because the people who gave it bad reviews didn't read the WHOLE book. Seriously, when I first got the book I was intimidated by its size and things were a little hard to find because I didn't buy it to read it, I just bought it for reference. Then, I got frustrated that I couldn't find the things I was looking for and decided to read the whole book. It was a great decision, cause now I am a Javascript master and things are a lot easier to find cause I know where to find them and what Im looking for. That is why I think this book gets bad reviews, cause the people didn't read the WHOLE book. You need to be serious about Javascript and read the WHOLE book in order to get the full benefit out of it. The beginners tutorial is only on the CD-rom. If you are a beginer at Javascript and absolutely NEED the beginners tutorial, then get the "Javascript Bible 4th Edition". It has the tutorial in the book, but leaves out a lot of advanced stuff and puts it in the CD. You're getting the same thing as the "Gold Edition", its just that the advanced stuff is in the CD in the 4th Edition, and the beginner stuff is in the CD in the "Gold Edition". So if you even know just the basics of Javascript, get the Gold, if you're brand new and don't like reading from a CD, get the "4th Edition". Either way, both gives you the same exact material, it just puts some of it on the CD. You will hate this book if you don't read it all, you must read the whole book to get the full benefit out of it, and I promise you,... you will become a Javascript master.
