Finally! A good learning book!, 25. Mai 2000

This book is WELL worth the money. Why? Because it teaches you ASP/ADO with examples, the results and then step by step explanation of how it works. I wish other books could be as good as this.

This is a book for people that understand the basics of programming (a little Basic/VB/VBscript is helpful) but not the finer details.

Definately worth the money, get it!

Not bad, could be better, 25. Mai 2000

I've got a real problem with this traditional-computer science approach of learning all about variables and structure but nothing that you can actually use.

This book is better than the previous book I tried, but it still doesn't allow you to really practice the code to learn it (to me, the only way you can really learn). It starts out really good, but still spends too much time on variables and structure and not enough real world code. The cookbook (additional book) is helpful but the code is too complex to learn Javascript on your own.

Look, books don't seem to be doing a very good job. If you want to learn Javascript, goto Yahoo.com and search for Javascript tutorial. I've… Mehr dazu

Am I supposed to be learning Javascript?, 25. Mai 2000

I've got a real problem with this traditional-computer science approach of learning all about variables and structure but nothing that you can actually use.

I had to actually RETURN this book, because it was such a waste. Little examples or real code, make it only good in "theory" and not in practice. You can do MUCH better.

Look, books don't seem to be doing a very good job. If you want to learn Javascript, goto Yahoo.com and search for Javascript tutorial. I've just tried a few, but in an hour or two I've learned 20x as much as trying to read the book.
