  Part tutorial and part reference, this book not only helps you develop new JavaScript skills by building on your basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and the Web in general, but also serves as a detailed reference for the more experienced web developers among you. Furthermore, the fifth edition now includes advanced material on the latest developer topics, such as scripting Flash with JavaScript, HTTP and Ajax, DOM, SVG, XML, web services, and remote scripting. Like all O'Reilly Definitive Guides , this book provides the most comprehensive reference section on the market, documenting every object, property, method, event handler, function and constructor used by client-side JavaScript. The new edition has also been revamped to cover the latest browsers, language updates, extensions, and JavaScript standards. No wonder, it's the top-selling JavaScript book of all time. No other book comes close.

  This guide provides a description of the core JavaScript language and both the legacy and standard DOMs implemented in web browsers. It includes sophisticated examples that show you how to handle common tasks, like validating form data, working with cookies and creating portable DHTML animations. It also contains detailed reference sections that cover the core JavaScript API, the legacy client-side API and the W3C standard DOM API, documenting every JavaScript object, method, property, constructor, constant, function and event handler in those APIs. This updated edition provides complete coverage of the W3C DOM standard (Level 1 and 2), while retaining material on the legacy Level 0 DOM for backward compatibility.
