JavaScript Programming Language Books

This Lübeck Haus Bookstore catalogue page has JavaScript programming language books.
These book were chosen because they present the scripting information in a clearly understood manner and use good illustrations and code examples.
JavaScript is a very powerful and easy to use computer programming language that runs on both Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer, and can be incorporated into any standard HTML document that will then run in any web browser on any operating system. Because of this platform independence, JavaScript is one of the most widely used web development languages.
JavaScript was developed by Netscape to enable Web developers and Web-design authors to design interactive sites. JavaScript can interact with HTML source code, enabling Web developers and authors to spice up their sites with dynamic content. Designing with JavaScript opens up a whole new world to Web-design authors, especially those coming from a print-design background. Many people liken Web-design to print-design, but there is nothing interactive about a page in print. Web pages, however, can be completely dynamic, different from moment to moment and responsive to the reader. One of the best ways to take advantage of this is through JavaScript. JavaScript is an important language of the Web that can be used for programming all major browsers. JavaScript, a simple scripting language, allows HTML users to build interactively directly into their Web pages rather than being downloaded as Java files. A good working knowledge of JavaScript gives you the ability to enhance your web site by creating interactive, dynamic and personalized pages.
