I usually recommend Object Oriented JavaScript by Stoyan Stefanov ( http://www.amazon.com/Object-Oriented-JavaScript-high-quality-applications-libraries/dp/1847194141/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1291711055&sr=8-1 ).
IMHO, Crockford book is too technical for new JS programmers (and too focused on a language subset, not the full language), although his videos/articles are a must if you already have experience with JavaScript. -- S.Cinos JavaScript Developer at Tuenti.com 2010/12/7 Slavo Furman <[email protected]> > Hi! > > Best books for learning javascript as a language imho is: JavaScript: > The Good Parts by Douglas Crockford > (http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596517748), then one can look at > JavaScript Patterns (http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596806767) and/or > Secrets of the JavaScript Ninja by John Resig (http://jsninja.com/). > > If you like a videos then definitely - Douglas Crockford on Javascript > (http://www.yuiblog.com/blog/2007/01/24/video-crockford-tjpl/) and > Douglas Crockford : Good Parts at GoogleTechTalks - > (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQVTIJBZook) > > In general - Douglas Crockford is a good resource - > http://javascript.crockford.com/. > > As for free ebooks - Eloquent Javascript > (http://eloquentjavascript.net/) and Let's build a framework > (http://dailyjs.com/2010/12/02/framework-review/) are good. > > hth, > Slavo. > > On Tue, Dec 7, 2010 at 6:01 AM, William Colbert <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hello All, > > > > I'm looking to start learning OOP JS so I can recode the JS in my > > current project in OOP. > > Where would you guys recommend to start and good places to learn ? > > > > > > Thanks > > > > _______________________________________________ > > JSMentors mailing list > > [email protected] > > http://jsmentors.com/mailman/listinfo/jsmentors_jsmentors.com > > > > _______________________________________________ > JSMentors mailing list > [email protected] > http://jsmentors.com/mailman/listinfo/jsmentors_jsmentors.com >
