DOM Scripting book
Web Design with JavaScript and the Document Object Model

Author: Jeremy Keith
Publisher: Friends of ED

Since I started observing web standards and trying to produce websites that were accessible to the widest possible audience I’ve tried to avoid JavaScript assuming my sites wouldn’t be accessibly to those users with screen readers or JavaScript turned off.

Jeremy Keith, from Brighton’s web consultancy Clearleft, explains how to write good, clean code that degrades gracefully in this fantastic book. Starting at the beginning with the history and basics of JavaScript, he steers you comfortably through best practices and real world, useful examples. Whatever your technical ability you can soon become proficient with writing your own JavaScript and you’ll soon be ready for his next book - Bulletproof Ajax (review coming soon - I’m still reading it!)
