Summary: Lost this book, but don't even miss it
Comment: I left this behind in NY when I was doing web consulting.
I don't even miss it! I was using it more as a reference
when going Broadvision and DHTML programming. In the era
of Netscape 4.7, we had to workaround a lot of problems....
I find the O'reilly Javascript:
Definitive guide to be much more approachable.

Summary: Couldn't even read the whole thing
Comment: I have read a plethora of programming and computer science books. This is about the worst I have read thus far. I know CS books can be dull, but this one takes the cake. The worst part is that many of the methods/functions listed don't include their parameters or an easy way to use them for reference. You need to dig through the examples to find what you're looking for. Your better off going to netscape's site and looking at their online guide. I tried to give it a chance, but after 250 pages of reading I'm putting it down for good.

Summary: Correction to JavaScript Versions
Comment: Just to set the record straight, the book is about JavaScript 1.2 as implemented through Netscape Communicator 4.04 and Netscape servers 3.x. Furthermore, the book is closer to 800 pages long and includes a JavaScript course from CBT.
