ppk on Javascript - Book Review

On my first forays into HTML/CSS design, Javascript was still viewed as almost completely evil by many in the accessible design community. So when I started to read the ppk Quirks Mode Web site, I wasn’t completely sure Peter-Paul Koch was writing safe and accessible code. Now he has removed all doubt about exactly what he’s achieved as a Javascript scripter.

ppk on Javascript is a clearly written project based presentation of the basic principles of Javascript programming for the Web. The book is organized around each principle and each section features working code examples with a complete explanation of exactly how and why they work as they do.

Written in a style that is accessible to the CSS design community, this book will be sure to expand the number of Web designers who embrace unobtrusive Javascript as a usability enhancement tool.
