Douglas Crockford on the Theory the DOM
Thursday November 16, 2006
I'm not a huge fan of JavaScript, but as I've mentioned in other posts, the DOM and scripting with it is growing on me.
I was reading the Web Standards Project site and they mentioned a video series by Douglas Crockford on the Theory of the DOM. It's very interesting. For one thing, it opened my eyes as to why I would get so frustrated with JavaScript and gave me some things to think about when I write new scripts.

The book ‘DOM Scripting’ is a great place to start for people dabbling in html css and javascript. It’s a fast read, it gets you thinking about web standards, and I use the information daily, and now I’m hooked on all the ‘Friend’s of Ed’ books.
