"I highly recommend Danny Goodman's 'JavaScript Bible'"
--Brendan Eich, JavaScript's creator
JavaScript Bible, 6th Edition
Now Available!
This new edition updates the cornerstone volume in learning to use JavaScript in browser scripting
since the earliest days of scriptable browsers. A lot has changed through the years, and the sixth

If you are new to JavaScript or use the book in your classroom, the updated tutorial

write scripts that work on today's and tomorrow's browsers. You get the same clear, example-filled
explanations of all core JavaScript and object model features of modern browsers.
