What This Book Covers
The 16 chapters of this book cover specific topics on the JavaScript language. The first two
chapters cover the most basic aspects of the language: what it is, what you need to know to
begin using JavaScript, and how to place JavaScript into an HTML file. The middle of the
book (Chapters 3–15) covers beginning JavaScript topics from variables all the way to using
JavaScript with frames. The final chapter (Chapter 16) introduces some advanced techniques,
and points you toward resources if you want to learn more about JavaScript once you have
completed the book.
This book includes a number of special features in each chapter to assist you in learning
JavaScript. These features include:
● Key Skills & Concepts Each chapter begins with a set of key skills and concepts that
you will understand by the end of the chapter.
● Ask the Expert The Ask the Expert Sections present commonly asked questions about
topics covered in the preceding text, with responses from the author.
● Try This These sections get you to practice what you have learned using a hands-on
approach. Each Try This will have you code a script through step-by-step directions
on what you need to do to in order to accomplish the goal. You can find solutions to
each project on the McGraw-Hill/Professional Web site at www.mhprofessional.com/
computingdownload.
● Notes, Tips, and Cautions Notes, Tips, and Cautions call your attention to noteworthy
statements that you will find helpful as you move through the chapters.
● Code Code listings display example source code used in scripts or programs.
● Callouts Callouts display helpful hints and notes about the example code, pointing to the

● Self Test Each chapter ends with a Self Test, a series of 15 questions to see if you have
mastered the topics covered in the chapter. The answers to each Self Test can be found in
the back of the book in the appendix.
That is it! You are now familiar with the organization and special features of this book to
start your journey through JavaScript. If you find that you are stuck and need help, feel free to
get online and visit the JavaScript discussion forums on the Web Xpertz Web site at www
.webxpertz.net/forums. The forums will allow you to interact with other JavaScript coders
who may be able to help you with your questions.
