5.0 out of 5 stars Well done guide in a great format., January 2, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Instant IE4 Dynamic HTML Programmer's Reference (Paperback)

This book is certainly well done, especially for it's smaller format. A few things should be noted, the most important of which is that you should have prior knowledge of both HTML 3.x and some knowledge of scripting. With out these mental tools, I could easily see how someone could get confused by this book. For anyone intermediate or above though, this book will quickly get you up to speed on IE4 DHTML with clear lessons on the basics, and a fantastic reference. My only complaints really is that the scripting was done in VBScript, not JavaScript.

It was probably one of the best IT book I read.
For now it is a bit outdated of course :)

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Instant IE4 Dynamic HTML Programmer's Reference (Paperback)

This book was rather hard to understand. In order to use it, it assumed you knew all VBscript, alot of CSS, and some JavaScript. The web address's for downloading the source code are obsolete, and it's just plain hard to understand. Not that I have anything against DHTML, except the person who wrote assumes you are a seasoned programmer who knows how and why you pre-declare variables, fetch properties and methods, have CSS down pat, ad infitum. Sic. By the way, I am really 13.
