How To Do Everything with JavaScript

Summary: Great Learning Book for Experienced Programmers
Review: Experience programmers learning Javascript as a new language will enjoy reading this book. It is clear and concise with simple examples. Novice programmers would also find this book useful. It is organized in a traditional way in which programming is taught. As you go through the chapters, the content becomes a bit more advanced.

This book would also be good for beginners, but it is not as good as Javascript: A Beginner's Guide.

However, this book is not a comprehensive presentation of Javascript and the DOM. You will need a companion book that is more of a complete reference. I am currently leaning toward JavaScript Bible, but have not yet made my decision. You may also want to consider a book that is directed toward specific applications. Javascript & DHTML Cookbook falls more into this category.

Summary: Clear and concise guide
Review: I bought this book after reading a good review of it on another site. I was not disappointed. The author really does a good job of going through java script programming without putting you to sleep. Great for beginners.

Summary: Excellent Solutions-Oriented Guide
Review: I went through several JavaScript books to find one that covered everything I needed. This book was by far the best out there. It's simple enough for the beginner, but still has useful information for someone who has written HTML & JavaScript before. It's just generally a good guide to have around.

Summary: Good JavaScript introduction
Review: It describes appropriately the JavaScript language. It is well written with almost no typos. It also has some introduction to the new JavaScript version 2.0. However, it is not clear when it describes DOM, JavaScript, and browser objects, methods and attributes, what it is fundamental for web applications development.

Summary: How to do it with everything... Javascript GREAT Series
Review: The "How to do it with everything s..." is one of the best series of its kind, I have found. Covering many subjects, as it does, I am particularly pleased with the way it deals with Web, or should I say Internet, related topics and still remain quite current. Not an easy thing, what with the speed of changes as fast as they are on-line.
JaveScript, which is a far more important facility than people give credit for, is quite difficult to explain, especially in a small book. Nevertheless, it is done very well here. Not explained "ad nauseum" but with tight facts and easy to follow examples.
Amazon sells this book at a great price, which is made even better if you buy say, two books and get the delivery for free. Saves me a fortune, I know that...
Learn and Enjoy.....
