November 15, 2001

JavaScript is one of the core technologies of the Web. Using
JavaScript, you can create dynamic, interactive Web pages that
include image rollovers, pop-up windows, auto-scrolling frames,
intelligent forms, and sophisticated Dynamic HTML effects. Even
better, you don't have to be a programming ace to learn enough
JavaScript to incorporate these elements into your Web pages.

Designing with JavaScript shows you how to create the effects you
want, without forcing you to wade through pages of dry
programmer-speak about variables, operators, and functions. Each
chapter demonstrates common JavaScript techniques and explains
how to customize them for your own use. Along the way, it
introduces basic JavaScript concepts, teaching the language in
the context of real-world examples. By the time you finish this
book, you'll have a solid foundation of JavaScript knowledge that
you can apply to your own web pages.
With Designing with JavaScript, you will learn to:
- Use JavaScript to produce visual effects, such as image
rollovers and rotating billboards
- Launch new browser windows, control frames, and validate form
data
- Customize your site by using JavaScript to detect browsers,
platforms, and plug-ins
- Use cookies to keep track of visitors, so you can welcome new
users while offering customized pages to returning users
- Create a tabbed folder interface, drop-down menus, and a
scrolling headline ticker, using the basics of Dynamic HTML
The first edition of Designing with JavaScript taught tens
of thousands of Eeb designers how to enliven their pages with
JavaScript. This new edition has been updated to cover the latest
JavaScript techniques supported by current web browsers. If you
are ready to start incorporating JavaScript into your designs,
this is the book for you.
