This Fifth Edition is completely revised and expanded to cover JavaScript as it is used in today's Web 2.0 applications. This book is both an example-driven programmer's guide and a keep-on-your-desk reference, with new chapters that explain everything you need to know to get the most out of JavaScript,including:


* Scripted HTTP and Ajax
* XML processing
* Client-side graphics using the canvas tag
* Namespaces in JavaScript--essential when writing complex programs
* Classes, closures, persistence, Flash, and JavaScript embedded in Java applications



Part I explains the core JavaScript language in detail. If you are new to JavaScript, it will teach you the language. If you are already a JavaScript programmer, Part I will sharpen your skills and deepen your understanding of the language.


Part II explains the scripting environment provided by web browsers, with a focus on DOM scripting with unobtrusive JavaScript. The broad and deep coverage of client-side JavaScript is illustrated with many sophisticated examples that demonstrate how to:


* Generate a table of contents for an HTML document
* Display DHTML animations
* Automate form validation
* Draw dynamic pie charts
* Make HTML elements draggable
* Define keyboard shortcuts for web applications
* Create Ajax-enabled tool tips
* Use XPath and XSLT on XML documents loaded with Ajax
* And much more



Part III is a complete reference for core JavaScript. It documents every class, object, constructor, method, function, property, and constant defined by JavaScript 1.5 and ECMAScript Version 3.


Part IV is a reference for client-side JavaScript, covering legacy web browser APIs, the standard Level 2 DOM API, and emerging standards such as the XMLHttpRequest object and the canvas tag.


More than 300,000 JavaScript programmers around the world have made this their indispensable reference
