to my JavaScript pages. Here you'll find the latest versions of implementation examples excerpted from
all three editions of my JavaScript book (see when and where you can meet the author!).
If you are new to JavaScript, I suggest you read an interview I gave to WebWord about the role of JavaScript in Web site design.
If Dynamic HTML is important to you (or you're just driven to distraction trying to figure out which tags, attributes, style sheet features, and objects work with what browsers), be sure to check out my newest book: Dynamic HTML:The Definitive Reference, published by O'Reilly & Associates.
Also on the DHTML front, learn about a hot new DHTML application I wrote for client Invisible Worlds, Inc.
What? You don't have a copy of the JavaScript Bible yet? Then let me entice you with a free copy of the JavaScript Object Roadmap and Quick Reference. The final version from the book is now available here (cover date: 2 January 1998). It is a .pdf (Adobe Acrobat) file that prints out on both sides of two pieces of paper and folds into a convenient reference. The new version shows Navigator and Internet Explorer compatibility ratings for every Netscape Navigator object and its properties, methods, and event handlers. I use it all the time.
If you have the Acrobat reader plug-in, you can preview the entire document. Or download your choice of a Windows zipped version or Macintosh binhex version. The download versions include step-by-step instructions for printing, assembling, and folding the pages into a handy pamphlet format.
The JavaScript Mini-FAQ is available full-time from this Web site.
Don't miss the library of informative JavaScript authoring articles in View Source. You can see a listing of articles.
Important update for users of my outliner scripts. See the small script update that puts spring back into the step of your outline when run in Navigator 4. A simple fix makes your outline young again!
