Summary: A professional reference
Review: This is not where you want to start when learning JavaScript, but if you're a professional developer, this is the best reference you could have. When I pick up this book (which is daily), I know I am getting the definitive word on the subject.

Summary: Wordy and not enough examples
Review: This is a technical book, but when reading it, I feel as if I am reading a novel. After reading a definition on something, I was kind of hung in the middle without any example or demonstration. Most of the examples are too short that I don't know where the information come from

Summary: Awesome book & reference for Javascript!
Review: I just bought this book and have already used it extensively. My coworker went out and bought it too. The book has great examples and a very comprehensive reference in the back. Visual Interdev's help for JScript is terrible, and this book is worth every penny!

Summary: The ultimate reference
Review: I couldn't live without this spectacular reference. I automatically pull this book off the shelf every time I write the word 'function' in a web page. A must have, both the best and most comprehensive JavaScript book I've ever read. Hands down.

Summary: Absolute Must-Have for all JavaScript Programmers
Review: Granted it is not a book for beginners or dabblers, but it shows you the subtle differences of JavaScript that will definitely separate you from the amatuers. Great reference in times of great need.

Summary: O'Reilly excellent as always
Review: As always, O'Reilly delivers an excellent reference guide and well documented code examples.I would highly recommend this book as a source for information on Netscape and Internet Explorers Document Object Model. The javascript examples are clearly written and the reference material is well laid out with browser specific differences noted.

Summary: I liked the previous edition better!
Review: A dog-eared copy of Edition 2 sits on my desk alongside the new one. I find the writing to be clear and concise. However, the new edition shows how the frenetic pace of the development cycle takes a toll on content. Specifically, there are inaccuracies in the book and places where it's incomplete. For example, In Chapter 13: Windows and Frames, the discussion of Timeouts and Intervals has this to say: "The setTimeout() method is commonly used...to animate some kind of message in the status bar of the browser. In general, animations involving the status bar are gaudy and you should shun them!" I don't need specious comments on the merits (or demerits) of status bar animations, but I do want information about the return value of the setInterval() method. I had to search on Netscape to find the answer I was looking for. My other complaint is that Internet Explorer's implementation of JavaScript is poorly documented. The authors justify this by the simple expedient of declaring Navigator as the Default JavaScript interpreter. I need to script for both browsers, however much I may like Netscape Navigator. To conclude, I have the highest regard for the author, and I do recommend this book. But there are bugs.

Summary: Very helpful , not great for beginners
Review: Well, alot of this may be the fact that i'm 13 but, it was very hard to understand until i read a tutorial from webmonkey.com which got me started. I found that the referance section helped me more than the actual book though, so i'd give the referance section 5 stars, the book 3 ;)
