KevinM1 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I'm familiar with the basics of JavaScript, but would like to learn more about its more advanced features. Specifically, doing things with custom objects, dealing with closures, the whole 'loss of scope' thing I've heard about, that sort of thing. I want to get real comfortable with JavaScript before trying my hand at AJAX. I'm the kind of guy who learns best with an actual book in my hands, so are there any decent, up-to-date resources (read: books) that someone could recommend? And no, w3schools doesn't qualify. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardRotterdam Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 hmmm usually only the basics are described very well in these books. The thing is most of the advance javascripting isnt really nicely described in books. The best javascripting is usually accomplished using javascript frameworks such as prototype, mootools and jquery. These frameworks continuously grow and books pretty much reach their expire date very fast on this topic. But if you are determined to get a book try getting one that uses one or more of these javascript frameworks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
