In Prototype and script.aculo.us Essential Training, Joe Marini
introduces the concepts and techniques for using Prototype and
script.aculo.us, two of the most popular open-source JavaScript
libraries for building cross-browser, highly interactive, and
visually appealing web sites. This course also covers installing
each of the libraries and explaining their unique purposes,
using simple CSS3 expressions to manipulate web content, working
with events in a cross-browser way, and enhancing a real-world
web site example to show different ways that the libraries can
be used. Exercise files are included with the course.

Topics include:

* Retrieving and manipulating web page elements
* Extending JavaScript objects, strings, numbers and more
* Handling web page events and creating custom events
* Traversing the DOM
* Creating and handling AJAX requests
* Using script.aculo.us controls such as Autocompleters, Sliders,
and Visual Effects
* Building complex page features like data filtering and image
rotators
