Overview
JavaScript is more than a great standalone Web scripting language. It's a powerful tool for platform-independent client/server development. Netscape Developer's Guide to JavaScript 1.2 is your complete guide to writing distributed client/server JavaScript applications that leverage the full power of Netscape Communicator 4.x and the latest Netscape servers. Learn the fundamentals of browser-based client/server development, including the role of JavaScript, Java and HTML. Key topics covered include techniques for integrating JavaScript with HTML; signed scripts and other security techniques; Netscape Navigator/Communicator object hierarchies; JavaScript's core objects, methods and functions; events, forms, windows, frames and more. You'll find detailed coverage of using LiveConnect to interface with plug-ins and Java applets, integrating JavaScript with Dynamic HTML, working with LiveWire databases, and building components using JavaScript Bean files. There's also a comprehensive guide to JavaScript development tools.Editorials
