Cornelius Concepts

For the first time in one publication, you can now get in-depth reference coverage of HTML, XHTML, Cascading Style Sheets, Dynamic Positioning, Document Object Models, and JavaScript as presented by standards bodies and as implemented in browsers through Internet Explorer 6 for Windows, Internet Explorer 5.x for Macintosh, and Netscape 7.
Several introductory chapters show you numerous techniques for implementing Dynamic HTML into your web sites today and planning for the future. Browser-specific and cross-browser implementations are discussed at length, as well as techniques that will make your code work with future browsers (and degrade gracefully in older browsers). Among the hot new topics, you'll learn how to silently load raw XML data into Internet Explorer and Mozilla-based browsers as data resources for dynamic HTML pages.
In the reference chapters, you can see at a glance the published standard and browser versions that first implemented each HTML/XHTML tag and attribute, each proprietary and W3C CSS style sheet attribute, each proprietary and W3C DOM object, property, method, and event handler. A full JavaScript (ECMAScript) core language reference is also included. Do you remember how all 8500 instances of DOM properties and 6000 DOM methods are implemented? I've wrangled them all, and organized them so you can find the syntax, explanations, and version support info you need quickly.
Completely new for this edition are a separate reference chapter on event handlers and a new appendix that lets you see instantly which HTML tags and attributes validate in a variety of modern HTML and XHTML DTDs.
At 1400 pages and after a year in development, Dynamic HTML: The Definitive Reference, 2nd Edition is by far the most comprehensive reference of its kind. This book assumes you are already familiar with HTML and JavaScript.
