A little old but still the best!
Scott Isaacs, one of the men representing Microsoft for the W3C at the time of the books writing and one of the creators of DHTML, does an outstanding job of introducing you to DHTML in a very easy to understand way. I've had this book for quite some time know and I still refer to it often. If you are familiar with JavaScript and HTML and need a better understanding of how to combine the two to produce interactive webpages this book is for you. While this book is a bit dated it does an excellent job of laying the foundation for the current state of DHTML. The lessons you learn from this book can be extended by visiting the authors website, probably one of THE best websites available today on cross-browser DHTML! This book is a definite buy!.
VB Scripters Move On
You have to translate the miles of JScript into VB Script. This book has a lot of fancy Java Script, but to those of us who refuse to write anything compatible with Netscrape (in other words, us VB Scripters), this book is difficult to read. Not much fun. VI Web Technologies reference is a useful daily reference, as well as MSDN Scripting Technologies web site.
Only Useful
For those Netscape browsers, the DHTML will not affect the layout of the page at all. The only word I wanna say is that this book is definitively useful. If your browser doesn't like DHTML, that's your problem, not our technology's problem. Think about this: If you have no feet, there is no use for shoes. But we cannot deny the fact that shoes are useful.
