Annotation: Rather than comprehensive coverage of JavaScript features and functionalities, a JavaScript expert offers instruction on its basic and selected advanced features through real-world scripts he created for clients. Following conceptual, technical, and historical overviews of this programming language intended to enhance the usability of Web browsers, he discusses topics including accessibility issues, data-type conversion, and strategies for dealing with browser incompatibilities. The guide concludes with thoughts about JavaScript's future. Koch is the author of a Web standards task force group's "JavaScript Manifesto," which explains his emphasis on standards-compliant Web sites, and has a Web site for JavaScript programmers.
