JavaScript Fundamentals I and II provides you with all of the training you need to build world-class web applications. Begin with JavaScirpt basics, including control statements, functions, arrays, objects, events, CSS, DOM, and more. Then, master scripting with XML and RSS, and finish by learning to build the rich Ajax applications that are taking the Web by storm!
Your instructor, Paul Deitel, delivers over 14 hours of world-class video training. Using the Deitels' signature "live-code" approach, Paul teaches by analyzing complete working programs, not trivial code fragments.

Part 1

Introduction to XHTML
In this lesson you will learn to use XHTML to build basic web pages. You will learn to add images to web pages, create and use hyperlinks, mark up lists of information for use in drop down menus, and create tables and forms. Finally, you will learn how to make web pages accessible to search engines.
Cascading Style Sheets
In this lesson you will learn to use CSS to control the look and feel of every element of your web pages. You will learn to use the class attribute to apply styles to page elements. You will also learn to specify fonts, sizes, colors and other properties; control the backgrounds of elements; use the box model to put padding and borders around elements; and finally use stylesheets to separate presentation from content.
Introduction to Scripting
In this lesson, you’ll learn how to write JavaScript programs that perform simple input and output. You will learn how to use the if selection statement for decision making, and how to use relational and equality operators with the if selection statement.
Control Statements: Part 1
In this lesson, you’ll learn how to use the JavaScript control statements if, if…else, and while. You will then explore counter-controlled repetition and sentinel-controlled repetition; and the increment, decrement, and assignment operators.
Control Statements: Part 2
In this lesson, you’ll learn how to use the JavaScript control statements for and do…while, as well as the switch multiple-selection statement. You will also learn about the break and continue statements, and the logical operators used to create complex conditions in your programs.
Functions
In this lesson you will learn about user-defined functions. You begin by creating functions and learning to pass information to them. You then learn about using random number generation, the “visibility” or scope of identifiers, JavaScript’s global functions, and finally recursive functions useful for manipulating XML files.
Arrays
This lesson first shows you how to declare, initialize, and reference elements of arrays in JavaScript. You then learn how to pass arrays to functions, sort array elements, and declare and manipulate multi-dimensional arrays.

Part 2

Objects
In this lesson you learn about the built-in JavaScript objects Math, String, Date, Boolean, and Number objects. Then you study the web-browser’s document and window objects. Finally you learn to use cookies to store session information.
Document Object Model
In this lesson you learn about the web-browser’s Document Object Model (DOM) to create dynamic web pages. You learn to use JavaScript to manipulate the W3C DOM using both DOM nodes and DOM trees, traverse and modify XHTML document elements, change CSS styles, and create JavaScript animations using the DOM.
Events
This lesson introduces the concept of event handling in JavaScript. You will learn how to create and register event handlers; enable and disable event bubbling; how to use the event object; and how to recognize and respond to onload, onmousemove, onmouseover, and onmouseout events. These events allow you to program visual interactivity into your web pages.
XML and RSS
In this lesson you will learn to markup content in XML format and process that content. You will learn about XML namespaces, Document-Type-Definitions (DTDs) and XML Schemas used to define the structure of an XML document, the eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) used to transform XML documents, and how to use JavaScript to retrieve and process the content of XML documents.
Ajax-Enabled Rich Internet Applications
In this lesson you will learn to use the group of technologies known as AJAX to build web pages that look and feel and respond like desktop applications. You will learn about using the XMLHttpRequest object to dynamically update web page content, how to make asynchronous server requests, and how to use JSON to transmit data quickly between clients and servers.
