Product Description
From the Publisher
Web designers: Learn how to code. Dynamic web development technologies are more than the hobby horses of programmers; your knowledge of DHTML and its components--JavaScript, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and the Document Object Model (DOM)--can make the difference in getting your next job. Makiko Itoh has written an eminently easy-to-learn-from entry into this world: you follow the steps, you play wth the code, you learn it by doing it. Not through 600 pages of tiny-type, but in the popular New Riders Magic-series design: landscape-layout for easy access while you work; visually forgiving, without wasting space. It's what a designer's guide to web coding ought to be. Non-patronizing (the book assumes you know your way around basic HTML and such), and intelligently helpful.
JavaScript + CSS + DOM Magic has directly applicable projects with step-by-step instructions showing you how to master a feature and adapt it according to their own needs and creativity. The wealth of graphics will make this book easy to read and visually appealing. This book makes JavaScript, CSS and DOM easy to understand by providing directly applicable models to readers' web sites. The book opens with a primer, giving context to the technologies, and then jumps into over 25 step-by-step, directly applicable projects. You will learn the most desired web functionalities, including: frames, mouse-overs, windows, forms, CGI, style sheets, dynamic positioning, and SSI. Reviewers have called this book an unprecedented practical and comprehensive DHTML guide. The CD contains complete working scripts, all images from the book's examples, bonus graphics, trial version of leading text editors (BBEdit Lite, Homesite).

Each project explains why it's relevant to learn this stuff; then you dive in and do it. Fourteen lessons, each of which will make you a better web designer/developer for the learning. No one's asking you to give up being a designer... you'll be that much better of a designer/developer for mastering what's in this book. Let us know how it works for you. Thanks.
