by Negrino

This task-based, visual-reference guide has been fully revised and uses step-by-step instructions and plenty of screenshots to give beginning and intermediate scripters what they need to know to keep their skills up-to-date. Readers can start from the beginning to get a tour of the programming language, or look up specific tasks to learn just what they need to know. In this updated eighth edition, readers will find new information on using frameworks and libraries--such as jQuery--and modern coding techniques.

I had such a good experience with the PHP Visual Quickstart Guide, that once I realized I needed Javascript on my website, I bought this book since the two are written the same way and by the same publisher. But I found Javascript to be harder to pickup than PHP, although the book did a good job walking me through the basics. I downloaded and used the examples as the author explained them, and in that way, Negrino was able to get some of the concepts through my thick skull.

Very very dumbed down and long-winded.

Poorly organized. But ok

Limited usefulness.

Not modern.
