The JavaScript guide that delivers!
JavaScript is the quickest, easiest way to build interactive Web pages. It's a tool useful to every Internet and intranet developer.
Jumping JavaScript delivers everything you need to get results immediately—including hundreds of script examples on CD-ROM, all designed for Windows 95, Macintosh, and UNIX. Even better, it is a comprehensive, well-indexed book—covering all the advanced techniques you need to become a world-class JavaScript developer.
Get started with the basics of the JavaScript language and scripting environment, including data types, variables, functions, operators, expressions and statements, debugging tips, and programming style. Next, discover JavaScript's powerful objects; learn how to create windows and documents, control and use history properties, embed images and Java code.
Jumping JavaScript contains detailed coverage of: - Understanding script writing basics, the Navigator object hierarchy and their event handlers.
- Developing forms with user interface elements to capture user input.
- Controlling scripts: JavaScript operators, testing for conditions, and creating loops.
- Creating links and active image areas.
- Working with system objects, including the String, Array, Date, and Math objects.
- Working with the Navigator, MimeType, and Plugin objects.
- Creating your own JavaScript objects and working with cookies.
Whether you're responsible for a Web site or corporate intranet, Jumping JavaScript is the one book you need to leverage all the power of JavaScript.
Customer Reviews & Comments
An impressive and helpful book. This one stands out in a field of quickly-written regurgitations of the manuals. I was able to browse and find code that did what I needed to do without reading everything. Lots of carefully-written samples and real-world tips. You get the impression these authors have actually explained this material to real, live users--so they know what needs emphasis and how to get the information across. I'm writing JavaScript provided by Windows servers (IIS with ASP) to Windows clients. But I am glad I took a look at this book from the Sun/Macintosh side of technology. The book is desribed as being for "web authors," but as a full-time developer I found it went well into the depths of the language. Caveat: I have browsed other JavaScript books on shelves, but have not purchased or read them.
