Excellent working Examples
I have used this book for over 4 years and still find it an excellent resource for code samples and simple scripts. No, it is not a comprehensive review of Javascript. Yes, it will get you on your way to building good client side validation and simple document object manipulation.

Great Javascipt resource!
I found this book absolutely enticing in ways I can only describe as enlightening, not-too-technical and functional.Nick's explanations of Javascript and its integration with HTML is concise and clear; and the working examples are great for experimenting. I'll surely be spending lots of time with BBEdit and handcoding this couple of weeks. This book misses a full whammy 5-star rating as I found the bundled CD a little stingy on further examples and/or demo software. All in all a good book! Whether you are a complete beginner who has not used Javascript before or an experienced web designer wanting to enhance your existing site, this book should be amongst your top references for some time to come.

Clarifying!
I've taken an online course in Javascript and already owned the O'Reilly Javascript book (good, but super dense). I could do a few scripts, but only by rote. I was not understanding exactly what was going on.For my skills and abilities Designing with Javascript was right on. Nick, the young author, uses superior examples and highly detailed descriptions on what's going on at each point in the script. Very useful. Within hours of receiving this book, I wrote my first moderately complex script and actually understood what I was doing!! Way to go Nick, keep up the good work. Definitely worth the price of admission.
