If you’re developing websites, you have to know JavaScript. There’s no way around it today.
And this latest edition of Murach’s popular book teaches you how to code modern JavaScript that conforms to the ECMAScript standards, the way the pros do. At the same time, it teaches you how to use jQuery, the classic JavaScript library, to handle the DOM scripting that gives JavaScript so much of its power. And it works no matter whether you’re a web designer who’s coming from a background in HTML and CSS or a server-side programmer who’s coded in languages like PHP, C#, Java, and Python.
How is all that possible? Section 1 presents a 7-chapter course on JavaScript that will get anyone off to a great start, with a special focus on the skills you need for getting the most from jQuery. Then, section 2 presents the jQuery skills that you’re likely to use, including how to create slide shows, image swaps, carousels, and accordions…how to validate the data in forms…and how to use plugins and widgets.
At that point, you’ll have a solid set of JavaScript and jQuery skills. Then, section 3 lets you expand your skill set as you learn how to work with date and time objects, browser objects, web storage, arrays, your own objects, regular expressions, and more. Finally, section 4 takes your skills to a new level as you learn how to use ECMAScript modules, work with Promises and Ajax, and get started using Node.js.
Complete coding examples, practice exercises, and Murach’s distinctive “paired-pages” format (each topic is presented in a 2-page spread with text and illustrations); all combine to let you tailor the pace and content to your personal learning style. Get your copy today, and see for yourself!
Review
“If you are new to web design or an old pro like me, this book is a must-have in my opinion. I love how it starts out with the basics and then moves on to the good stuff. Each chapter is full of examples and sample code showing you how to do the most common techniques that you will face as a web developer or designer. I have not seen a better book on the subject. ” –Shawn Jackson, Web Developer, Colorado
