Hi everyone,
Thought I'd let you know that book 2, /jQuery Reference Guide: A
Comprehensive Exploration of the Popular JavaScript Library/, is now
available for pre-order from the publisher's web site. It won't show up
on amazon.com until a week or two after the publication date, so if you
want a copy super-fast, go to this URL:
http://www.packtpub.com/jquery-reference-guide-Open-Source/book
Here's a snippet of the marketing pitch from packtpub.com:
This book offers an organized menu of every jQuery method, function,
and selector. Each method and function is introduced with a summary of
its syntax and a list of its parameters and return value, followed by
a discussion, with examples where applicable, to assist in getting the
most out of jQuery and avoiding the pitfalls commonly associated with
JavaScript and other client-side languages.
If you're already familiar with JavaScript programming, this book will
help you dive right into advanced jQuery concepts. You'll be able to
experiment on your own, trusting the pages of this book to provide
information on the intricacies of the library, where and when you need
it. If you're still hungry for more, the book shows you how to cook up
your own extensions with jQuery's elegant plug-in architecture.
This book is a companion to Learning jQuery: Better Interaction Design
and Web Development with Simple JavaScript Techniques.
Learning jQuery begins with a tutorial to jQuery, followed by an
examination of common, real-world client-side problems, and solutions
for each of them, making it an invaluable resource for answers to all
your jQuery questions.
jQuery Reference Guide digs deeper into the library, taking you
through the syntax specifications and following up with a detailed
discussion. You'll discover the untapped possibilities that jQuery
makes available, and hone your skills as you return to this guide time
and again.
This book is for web developers who want a broad, organized view of
all the jQuery library has to offer or a quick reference on their
desks to refer to for particular details.
The reader needs the basics of HTML and CSS, and should be comfortable
with the syntax of JavaScript, but no knowledge of jQuery is assumed.
This is not an introductory title and if you are looking to get
started with jQuery (or JavaScript libraries in general) then you are
looking for Learning jQuery.
Cheers,
--Karl
