You're only really interested in client-side Javascript for the API. The definitive English-language guide to Javascript is called (unsurprisingly) Javascript: the Definitive Guide, by David Flanagan, published by O'Reilly. Also known as "The Rhino Book". Highly recommended. http://www.amazon.co.uk/JavaScript-Definitive-Guide-David-Flanagan/dp/0596101996/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1257802709&sr=8-1 > Is there an actual web site for JavaScript. There are plenty of tutorial sites. Just searching for something like "javascript getElementsByTagName" or whatever you're interested in would bring up lots of results. JavaScript was developed by Netscape as an extension to ECMAScript, so I suppose that https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript is the authoritative site. > and why would a question to TextMate be posted in the Google Groups. No idea about that, though. Andrew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
