With this second edition of the popular DOM Scripting: Web Design with JavaScript
and the Document Object Model comes a modern revision to update best practices and
guidelines. It includes full coverage of HTML5 in a new, dedicated chapter, and
details on JavaScript libraries and how they can help your scripting.

The book provides everything you'll need to start using JavaScript and
the Document Object Model to enhance your web pages with client-side dynamic
effects and user-controlled animation. It shows how JavaScript, HTML5, and
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) work together to create usable, standards-compliant
web designs. We'll also cover cross-browser compatibility with DOM scripts and how
to make sure they degrade gracefully when JavaScript isn't available.

DOM Scripting: Web Design with JavaScript and the Document Object Model focuses
on JavaScript for adding dynamic effects and manipulating page structure on the
fly using the Document Object Model. You'll start with a crash course in JavaScript
and the DOM, then move on to several real-world examples that you'll build from
scratch, including dynamic image galleries and dynamic menus. You'll also learn how
to manipulate web page styles using the CSS DOM, and create markup on the fly.

If you want to create websites that are beautiful, dynamic, accessible, and
standards-compliant, this is the book for you!
