Intelligent Web Sites with JavaScript
Ford's book is aimed at folks who want to add interactivity to web sites with JavaScript.

Providing good reference value, Ford uses a structure of a desired "action" followed by "how-to-do-it" instructions. His general actions, for which most people will have some use, include prompting the reader for information and using a text box. The second half of the book discusses problem-solving, storing knowledge, pattern matching, game playing, dynamic HTML, and JavaScript. This is an excellent book for beginners, who can advance into very complex design considerations in the later chapters. This book shows developers without programming experience the easy way to create intelligent applications and increase interactivity. Covering both the client and server aspects of JavaScript.

JavaScript
JavaScript is one of the most popular scripting languages for producing dynamic web pages, and is popular not just because it is easy to learn, but also because it is platform-independent, meaning that most web browsers can handle it. It can be used to create sites which are vibrant, user-friendly and arresting. As a way of enhancing the contents of a website, JavaScript is enormously successful. Whether you have web development experience or have never programmed before, Stefan Koch provides an excellent introduction to programming with JavaScript, using motivating examples and clear, concise language. Rather than simply providing ready-made scripts, the author encourages you to try modifying and enhancing the programs yourself so that you can harness the potential of JavaScript to give you exactly what you need.

JavaScript & DHTML Cookbook
The JavaScript & DHTML Cookbook is all about adding value to the content of a web page. The book focuses on practical and sensible applications of scripting, rather than flying images and gratuitous color changes. For every problem Goodman addresses, there's a solution or "recipe"--a focused piece of code that web developers can insert directly into their applications. Yet, rather than just cut-and-paste code, you also get explanations of how and why the code works, so you can learn to adapt the problem-solving techniques to your designs. The recipes range from simple tasks, such as manipulating strings and validating dates in JavaScript, to entire libraries that demonstrate complex tasks, such as cross-browser positioning of HTML elements and sorting tables. This book contains over 150 recipes on the following topics: Working with interactive forms and style sheets; Presenting user-friendly page navigation; Creating dynamic content.
