Title: Pretty good book all in all - but not for beginners.
Review: A reasonably well rounded book. It doesn't cover data binding (only a passing reference section) which is a little disappointing. It was obviously written with a Preview Release of IE4, but surprisingly this doesn't detract from it very much at all. One of the best things about this book is it is simply quite readable, some of these books are so dry you have to drag yourself through. It already assumes you are a competent HTML coder and reasonable Javascripter, and in keeping with a target audience like that doesn't insult you with the rubbish "what is the Internet?" sections so many publishers insist in including in every book. Virtually everything is backed up by an example, and despite this it manages to go at a reasonable pace. The Netscape 4 coverage isn't as comprehensive as I'd like it to be, but is ok. All in all, not too bad - I've read better books, but I've read a lot, lot worse (such a DHTML Unleashed).
