Produktbeschreibung

Whether you need an example-driven programmer's guide or a complete desk reference, JavaScript: The Definitive Guide is the most authoritative book on the language that runs the Web. The sixth edition offers comprehensive coverage of ECMAScript 5 (the new language standard) and also the new APIs introduced in HTML5. The chapters on functions and classes have been completely rewritten and updated to match current best practices. A new chapter covers language extensions and subsets.

---

Since 1996, JavaScript: The Definitive Guide has been the bible for JavaScript programmers - a programmer's guide and comprehensive reference to the core language and to the client-side JavaScript APIs defined by web browsers.
The 6th edition covers HTML5 and ECMAScript 5. Many chapters have been completely rewritten to bring them in line with today's best web development practices. New chapters in this edition document jQuery and server side JavaScript. It's recommended for experienced programmers who want to learn the programming language of the Web, and for current JavaScript programmers who want to master it.
"A must-have reference for expert JavaScript programmers...well-organized and detailed." - Brendan Eich, creator of JavaScript, CTO of Mozilla
"I made a career of what I learned from JavaScript: The Definitive Guide." - Andrew Hedges, Tapulous

Rezensionen

"Mit der fünften Auflage kann David Flanagan an die Erfolge der Reihe anknüpfen und stellt dem ambitionierten JavaScript-Entwickler ein umfassendes und aktuelles Handbuch zur Verfügung, das sowohl die Syntax der Sprache, alles über clientseitiges JavaScript und auch aktuelle Themen wie AJAX ausführlich behandelt. [...] Fazit: Mit JavaScript - The Definitive Guide ist David Flanagan die vielleicht umfassendste und beste Referenz zu JavaScript gelungen. Wer also möglichst effizient seine JavaScript-Anwendungen programmieren möchte, ist mit diesem Buch als Wegbegleiter gut beraten. Es sollte auf keinem Schreibtisch fehlen." -- Maandiko.de, Dezember 2006
