Summary

Create dynamic Web pages using the popular Web scripting language, JavaScript! Building on the successful philosophy of prior editions, this market leading text is perfect for beginning programmers with prior knowledge of HTML. A popular scripting language that is widely supported in Web browsers and other Web tools, JavaScript adds interactive functions to HTML pages. This text also discusses the Document Object Model (DOM) specification published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). In keeping with the success of the previous editions, this book features hands-on projects, a step-by-step methodology, as well as additional end-of-chapter exercises.
