Like the previous two editions of JavaScript Bible, this sixth edition contains far more information than can be printed and bound into a single volume. The complete contents can be found in the electronic version of this ebook (in PDF form) on the CD-ROM that accompanies the book. This new edition is structured in such a way as to supply the most commonly needed information in its entirety in the printed portion of the book. Content that you use to learn the fundamentals of JavaScript and reference frequently are at your fingertips in the printed version, whereas chapters with more advanced content are in the searchable electronic version on the CD-ROM.
Here are some details about the book’s structure.Part I of the book begins with a chapter that shows how JavaScript compares with Java and discusses its role within the rest of the World Wide Web. The web browser and scripting world have undergone significant changes since JavaScript first arrived on the scene. That’s why Chapter 2 is devoted to addressing challenges facing scripters who must develop applications for both single- and cross-platform browser audiences amid rapidly changing standards efforts. Chapter 3 provides the first foray into JavaScript, where you get to write your first practical script. All of Part II is handed over to a tutorial for newcomers to JavaScript. Nine lessons provide you with a gradual path through browser internals, basic programming skills, and genuine browser scripting with an emphasis on industry standards as supported by most of the scriptable browsers in use today. Exercises follow at the end of each lesson to help reinforce what you just learned and challenge you to use your new knowledge. The goal of the tutorial is to equip you with sufficient experience to start scripting simple pages right away while making it easier for you to understand the in-depth discussions and examples in the rest of the book. Part III, the largest section of the book, provides in-depth coverage of the document object models as implemented in today’s browsers, including the object used for modern Ajax applications. In all reference chapters, a compatibility chart indicates the browser version that supports each object and object feature. One chapter in particular, Chapter 15, contains reference material that is shared by most of the remaining chapters of Part III. To help you refer back to Chapter 15 from other chapters, a dark tab along the outside edge of the page shows you at a glance where the chapter is located. Additional navigation aids include guide words near the top of most pages to indicate which object and object feature is covered on the page. Reference information for the core JavaScript language fills Part IV. As with reference chapters of Part III, the JavaScript chapters display browser compatibility charts for every JavaScript language term. Guide words near the top of pages help you find a particular term quickly. Download free ebook for javascript: Javascript Bible sixth Edition
