I just came across two excellent videos by Douglas Crockford about the history of browser development, and Javascript. "An Inconvenient API: The Theory of the Dom" http://yuiblog.com/blog/2006/10/20/video-crockford-domtheory/ The video explains browser history and how things ended up in the mess that is modern web development. He talks about the differences between browsers and how to cope with them. Very useful for people developing for multiple browsers (which is almost everyone!). --- "Advanced JavaScript" http://yuiblog.com/blog/2006/11/27/video-crockford-advjs/ Slightly more advanced, but essential for anyone using Javascript who wants to have a better understanding of the language. He talks about Javascript''s prototypal inheritance model vs. the classical model, and much much more. I''m sure others will find these very interesting and informative. -Jonathan. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
