Customer Reviews & Comments
This review is from: Essential JavaScript for Web Professionals (Paperback)
Some of the hardest things to find in life are people who hate pizza, short lines and good Java books. This book is nothing short of a waist of time if you are not experienced with Javascript. The examples in this book are consistantly flawed with mistakes that would make any programmer want to slap the editor. There is no resource for accessing the scripts from the web like in the other essential books, leaving you to figure out how the hell to get the script working because the example they gave you is erroring all over the place. The only way I could recommend this book would be if you were looking for ideas on how to program. It gives some interesting concepts of how to accomplish some neet things with Javascript. It might make a good companion for study but I would keep a dish of holy water and some salt nearby, you'll need it. Other than that stay away from this book, I wouldn't wish this catastrophy on my worst enemy...well maybe.
