Applying the JavaScript[tm] Programming Language

( WP-1702-90 )

Course Description

Applying the JavaScript[tm] Programming Language shows students how to use the document.layer object for referencing and controlling layer properties. Then it shows how to write code to determine a user's browser so students tailor their web presentation. It also shows students how to write a script to check for specific plug-ins and MIME types. Finally it introduces students to some of the major security threats, limitations, and work-arounds they encounter when using the JavaScript language.

This course uses animations to demonstrate some of the concepts covered. Depending on the capabilities and settings of your browser, these animations will appear either in a simple version without audio narration or in a more detailed Macromedia Flash version with audio. For viewers using Netscape Navigator[tm], your browser automatically delivers the Macromedia Flash version if your system supports this. Viewers using Internet Explorer will initially see the simple version, but may choose to view the more detailed Macromedia Flash animation with audio instead. The next animation viewed reflects their last choice.

Because this course deals with JavaScript[tm] programming language as its subject matter, it uses JavaScript language in some of its examples. Your browser must be JavaScript language enabled to view these examples.
