4.0 out of 5 stars W3C DOM way of developing DHTML applications
What I like about this book is that it focuses on the W3C DOM way of developing DHTML client applications. Most other Dynamic HTML books focus too much document.write(), proprietary extensions to web standards, or server side dynamic web pages.

The examples in the book, if they work, are repeated throughout the text without giving new examples. And they will not validate with W3C's validators.

The author's website is a joke, the book...

This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself DHTML in 24 Hours (Paperback)
What I like about this book is that it focuses on the W3C DOM way of developing DHTML client applications. Most other Dynamic HTML books focus too much document.write(), proprietary extensions to web standards, or server side dynamic web pages.

Having researched quite a few books on Dynamic HTML, for those of you who want to get started, this is a pretty good book to get a feel for doing the W3C way.

The examples in the book, if they work, are repeated throughout the text without giving new examples. And they will not validate with W3C's validators.

The author's website is a joke, the book made it sound like you could get useful information and possibly even snippets of code from the site. Again I was disapponted.

I have in the past I enjoyed the Sam's 24 hour series of books, but perhaps they should have spent an addition 24 days, or weeks, or maybe even months getting this book right.
