Suggested title: "Collection of Practical JavaScript", 1. Juli 2000
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Designing with JavaScript. Creating Dynamic Web Pages (Web Review Studio Series) (Taschenbuch)
Being a programmer myself and programmed in assembly, C/C++, VisualBasic, HTML, etc, I found this book well organized and offers many useful Javascripts. However, if you are looking to actually completely understand JavaScript from inside out, this is not the book. One who has previous OOP experience can easily pick up a lot of the concepts used in this book by just looking at the code because it takes too much time to read through the text. Although it does cover some subtle topics to help the reader save time but it doesn't detailly explain a lot of the essential concepts behind this scripting language. Don't get me wrong, you'll understand most essential concepts behind JavaScript, but it's more like a how-to book than a fundational book. For people who are not fluent in programming, this is a good start and this is an excellent book. For programmers, look elsewhere. P.S. I am younger than the book's author (he is 20 in 2000), but I still give him a lot credit for doing something like this.

Good book if you don't want to actually learn javascript, 13. Juni 2000
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Designing with JavaScript. Creating Dynamic Web Pages (Web Review Studio Series) (Taschenbuch)
I found this book to be geared for someone who isn't interested in learning any programming skills at all. If you want to copy code out of a book and not have to do anything else then this is a great book for you. But, I'll caution even the experienced programmers, not all of the code in this book works, and there are a lot of typos. The book should have been proof read much better, since most of the typos are in the code examples. All of the typos in the book makes learning javascript very confusing and frustrating. Especially when you copy the code letter for letter and it doesn't work due to a typo(that your friend has to find for you 2 days later). I bought the book to compliment my other O'Reilly HTML books and to start to learn Javascript. And I have taken a lot of knowledge out of this book but I also found it very useful to have another reference book on hand to explain in further detail what different pieces of the code were doing. The author has tried to make it as easy as possible by telling you that you don't need to know certain things about javascript, when in fact, you may just need that information. I think he could have included the information on one of the many sidebars ans let you and me, the readers, decide on what information we need. All in all, I'll didn't read through every page of the book because I got lost in reading other resource books , which I needed to explain the parts of javascript that this book didn't explain. I still use the book for reference but only as a guide on how to layout the code for a certain project or to get ideas on what to do next.

Clearest javascript book I have encountered, 28. Mai 2000
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Designing with JavaScript. Creating Dynamic Web Pages (Web Review Studio Series) (Taschenbuch)
I am an advanced programmer/webmaster, and I found this book to contain clear, concrete, and usable examples of javascript. Pedagogy is very clear, both for beginners and novices. CD comes with code that works. Buy this book if you want to learn or incorporate javascript into your web pages. Code always contains browser type checking to provide compatibility with browser types. New edition is due out August 2000 so you might want to get that edition.
