Professional JavaScript for Web Developers provides a developer-level introduction along with the more
advanced and useful features of JavaScript.

Starting at the beginning, the book explores how JavaScript originated and evolved into what it is today. A detailed discussion of the components that make up a JavaScript implementation follows, with specificfocus on standards such as ECMAScript and the Document Object Model (DOM). The differences inJavaScript implementations used in different popular Web browsers are also discussed.

Building on that base, the book moves on to cover basic concepts of JavaScript including its version of
object-oriented programming, inheritance, and its use in various markup languages such as HTML. An
in-depth examination of events and event handling is followed by an exploration of browser detection
techniques and a guide to using regular expressions in JavaScript. The book then takes all this knowledge
and applies it to creating dynamic user interfaces.

The last part of the book is focused on issues related to the deployment of JavaScript solutions in Webapplications. These topics include error handling, debugging, security, optimization/obfuscation, XML, and Web Services.

Welcome and congratulations on purchasing Flash Animation for Teens. If you are standing in a bookstore or reading this introduction online, what are you waiting for? Check out and let’s dive right in to learning about Flash.

I’m no mind reader. In fact, I have no fantastic psychic abilities. But I’m going to take a few guesses to see if I know who you are. You may actually be a teenager who is interested in getting started in Flash animation and is looking for a great resource to get started. If so, you’ve come to the right place. You may alternatively be the parent of a teenager or young adult who is looking for a good resource for his or her child to start Flash animation. Once again, if so, you’ve come to the right place. My last guess is that you may not be a teenager or the parent of a teenager at all. You may just be someone who is interested in getting into Flash animation and is looking for a great resource for beginners that isn’t intimidating and won’t lose you in a wilderness of heavy technical jargon and confusing instructions. Don’t let the title of this book restrict you from diving right in. The truth is, this book is specifically designed for anyone who is interested in starting the journey to learning about Flash animation, and there is absolutely no experience necessary.

Microsoft introduced Visual Basic, Scripting Edition—commonly known as VBScript—inthe mid-1990s, positioning it as a native replacement for Windows’ aging command-line batch language, which was based on Microsoft’s earliest operating system, MS-DOS. VBScript was intended to be easy to learn, powerful, and flexible. The language was included as an add-on to Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0, was an optional installation component included in Windows 98, and was included in all editions of Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003.

Software developers immediately seized upon VBScript for web programming, particularly in Active Server Pages, Microsoft’s rapid-development programming framework for the web. However, Windows administrators—one of VBScript’s initial target audiences—were left cold. VBScript seemed to be much more complicated than administrators’ beloved MS-DOS-based batch language, and many didn’t see the need to learn an entirely new batch language.

Hi! You’re holding the Zope Bible, a book we suspect will change how you look at building Web sites and Web applications. If you’re like most Web developers and designers, you’re probably always looking for ways to improve your process, both for building and for maintaining Web sites. Whether the sites you’re building are consumer-oriented Web applications, content-centric publishing sites,
intranets, or even vanity sites, you want to build them faster, maintain them easier, and integrate other people into your workflow with a minimum of hassle and fuss.

Zope is a tool that is hard to describe, as in many ways it’s in a category all its own.
So, rather than describe what it is, it’s better to describe what Zope can do for you:

- Zope contains a templating language for creating dynamic pages, making it easier to create and maintain a common look and feel for your site.
- Zope uses a powerful scripting language (Python) for creating business logic, making it easy to create powerful Web applications.
- Zope has a built-in Web management interface so you can create and maintain entire sites with nothing more than a standard browser and an Internet
connection.
- Zope has a built-in object database, making it easy to store content, logic, and presentation in a single place.
- Zope has a built-in security framework, making it easy and safe to delegate maintenance of sections or subsections of the site to other people.
- Zope sites are also accessible via FTP and WebDAV, making it easier to leverage the desktop site creation tools you already use.
- Zope is written in Python, making it easy to extend and enhance with your own customizations.
- Zope has built-in content management tools such as Version objects and Undo, which make it easier to safely modify and update a site while it’s “live.”

In other words, if you build Web sites, Zope is the tool for you.
