4.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Buy... for Scripters, October 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Web Scripting Secret Weapons (Paperback)
In this book I found some information available nowhere else -- like using the "eval()" function to get around the fact that Explorer 3 doesn't support cookies. It's brilliant! For those who find it too steep, read the information under "What This Book Is Not" (p.3): "This is *not* a beginner's book, in the sense of teaching how JavaScript or Perl work, ..., and several assumptions are made: .You're familiar with HTML... .You have an *understanding of Perl, JavaScript, or VBScript* .You have created your share of Web pages..." The author is honest from the start. It's a great book if you need some answers as a scripter or (even light) programmer, not as a new-comer in the web or scripting fields. But if you are a scripter, this book will make you look good more than once. MC - Santa Cruz, CA

1.0 out of 5 stars lousy, May 4, 1998

This review is from: Web Scripting Secret Weapons (Paperback)
This book had chunks and sections of code, it gave you some great ideas for an experienced programmer. It does not teach you how to do anything. These examples could be found for free on the web. This book was a waste of money, if you are trying to learn Perl, "Learning Perl(llama book)" is a good one, Javascript, "Javascript for Dummies is a good one", but it is a thorough language and a C/C++ background would be good for either Perl or Javascript.
