JavaScript - Book
Hi there i wanted some sugessions on good books out there for AJAX as a whole for beginners familiar in programming. I donot know java scripting. Should i learn that before AJAX? Please suggest good books for both
Similar TutorialsSo I am looking for a book that basically goes from the very basics to middle level of java programing, but one that is up to date, and that explains everything, not like some of the books that just throws code at you and expects you to understand why you are making the class public and why it extends javaplugins, just something in depth that really explains why for everything.
Would like to start learning JavaScript and would appreciate any books based on JavaScript that forum members would care to recommend. Thanks all
Hello, I was just wondering if anyone knows of a great javascript book to buy. I am looking for something super duper hard core. I would love it to have documentation galore that includes all of the AJAX and DOM and XML. You know... like a javascript BIBLE. Something thick and comforting. Something that makes you feel all warm and toasty inside just knowing that it is there. So if I start running into some problem I can just glance at the book and rest assured that if the problem exculates not to fear. I have .... THE BOOK. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Michael Hi, I have a very old book on JavaScript, and just wondering if it would be wise to start from it. The book is: SAMS Teach yourself JavaScript in 24 hours - Second Edition (covers JavaScript 1.5) Let me know guys because I can get cracking on with it if so! What I need to know is whether or not JS has been updated since? Hi, I'm looking for a coloring book script and ... I'm trying to understand, how does it work: http://www.coloringpageskids.org/onl...ls-butterfly,5 It's HTML5, JavaScript or something else? I am studying Javascript from the Headfirstlabs book. Please see my coding below as per the instructions on page 26, the only thing that happens is the onload alert [Hello, I am your per rock] when the page loads, nothing else and no touchrock function or smiling face, I have the images where they should be. Can anyone tell me why it's not working on my end please? Code: <html>
<head>
<title>irock -The virtual Pet Rock</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function touchrock () {
var username = prompt ("What is your name?", "Enter your name here.");
if (username) {
alert ("It is good to meet you, " + username + ".");
document.getElementByID ("rockImg").src = "rock_happy.png";
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="alert ('Hello, I am your pet rock.');">
<div style="margin-top: 100px; text-align: center;">
<img id="rockIMG" src="rock.png" alt="irock" />
</div>
</body> </html> AMAZON has some nice future for book preview and they can display book cover/back like real book. For instance Rational Astrology: as a physical model (Chinese Edition): Julian J.-L. Ting: 9781493734559: Amazon.com: Books Presumably that is done by javascript? Is there any free code available for doing such business? I use a bookmarklet that looks like this: Code: try{
sl_el_wrapper.go();
}
catch(e){
var%20s=document.createElement('script');
s.id='sl_el_BMSCRIPT';
s.type='text/javascript';
document.body.appendChild(s);
s.src='http://EXAMPLE.com/marklet.js.php?v='+(new%20Date().getTime());
}
void(0);
This was all on one line, but I added a return after each ;. I want to make this a function so I can click a button on my page and have it run. I've tried a lot of things but cant seem to make it work. Any thoughts? I have come to the conclusion that this book title sux "New Perspectives on JavaScript, 2nd Edition " Is there a better book I can use where I can copy the sample programs that the book uses, that actually has good modern javascript technique, and has the other code that goes along with it like the html, the css, and the .jpgs all on the cd that comes with the book or something? "Professional JavaScript for Web Developers (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)" by Nicholas C. Zakas is a good book title it definitely clarified that crappy text book that my university gave me, but I'm ready to take the next step and start using sample code and apply the concepts I learned from that book. Please recommend anything I would need to be ubber programmers like all of you guys.
I have to take more javascript programming classes and I'm really not good at it. I desperately need help. I own Visual Basic, but it's a little difficult to use. What is the best book, online resource, and software for programming in javascript?
I typed this code straight out of the book and it just doesn't seem to work. I have the headlines on the left side and when clicked the contents of the headline is supposed to show up in the text box on the right. Well, needless to say, nothing appears. Please someone tell me what I am doing wrong. I am not the only person in the class having this issue. Thanks a million.
