Curl is a next-generation programming language that makes it possible to create dynamic and rich Web content and user interfaces. It takes the best concepts from HTML, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript, and Java to create a one-stop language for Web designers and developers. This book explains what Curl is, why it is here, and what it can do to make your applications more robust, interactive, and efficient. Using a building block approach, the book helps both HTML/JavaScript/CSS and Java programmers understand the Curl language, and any features that are new or specific to scripting or Java programming are addressed. The book is ideal for people who would like to learn the capabilities of Curl, as well as the syntax for creating applets. By the end of the book, readers will be able to create user interfaces, games, and Web applications using Curl. An extensive amount of workable code samples are also included, as well as broken down line by line.
