Java Script is one of the most important technologies on the web. It provides the means to add dynamic functionality to your web pages and serves as the backbone of Ajax-style web development. Beginning Java Script with DOM Scripting and Ajax is an essential guide for modern Java Script programming; it’s practical but comprehensive. It covers everything you need to know to get up to speed with Java Script development and add dynamic enhancements to web pages and program Ajax-style applications.
Experienced web developer Christian Heilmann begins gently by giving you an overview of Java Scriptits syntax, good coding practices, and the principles of DOM scripting. Then he builds up your Java Script toolkit, covering dynamically manipulating markup, changing page styling on the fly using the CSS DOM, validating forms, dealing with images, and much more. Then he takes you to advanced territory, with a complete case study illustrating how many new Java Script techniques can work together, plus a great introduction to Ajax development.
