JavaScript has changed! The old style of coding is out out out!
The DOM (Document Object Model) is in! AJAX is in! All hail the new
world of web programming towards a moving target! Fear not ye crusty stagnant
COBOL programmers! For tho ye tremble before the daunting task, you have
developed a strong reliable development style. Ye understand how to
translate business rules into cold hard computer logic. Open the rusty
gates to your brain and let the new information flow in!
These are exercises that I am doing to
practice while learning AJAX. My plan is to review and work through
exercises and examples from books and off of the web. These resources
include, but are not limited to:
- JavaScript Bible 5th Edition (Danny Goodman with Michael Morrison)
- Ajax in Action (Dave Crane, Eric Pascarello, Darren James)
- DOM Scripting: Web Design with JavaScript and the Document Object Model (Jeremy Keith)
- Some AJAX widgets.
And the exercises:
- JavaScript Popup Calendar
- JavaScript Image Gallery

the Document Object Model" by Jeremy Keith.
- getElementById
from Chapter 3 Page 49 "DOM Scripting: Web Design with JavaScript and
the Document Object Model" by Jeremy Keith.
- getElementsByTagName
