- jinfiesto 16y agoI agree. Eloquent Javascript is excellent.
- lkrubner 16y agoAt least in Google Chrome on a Mac, all I get are blank white pages. If I hit view source, then I see text, but otherwise I see no text.
- Samuel_Michon 16y agoI just checked in Chrome 6 on Mac OS X 10.6.4 -- works fine here. In Safari 5 Mac as well.
- marijn 16y agoCan you tell me which version you're using? I'm also not seeing any problems (in version 6), but I'd like to figure out what's happening for you.
- 20after4 16y agoworks for me
- stuff4ben 16y agoWorks for me in Chrome 6.0.472.63 on MacOS 10.6.4.
- mhb 16y agoAnd Marijn developed Postmodern for Lisp Postgres access too!
- ktf 16y agoEloquent JavaScript is being being published in print form soon as well: http://nostarch.com/ejs.htm http://nostarch.com/ejs.htm
- macco 16y agoYeah you are right. Eloquent Javascript is the best introduction I know - free or commercial. Most Javascript books I know aren't very good.
- bl4k 16y agoThat book has an excellent chapter on object oriented Javascript, which is sorely lacking in most js books.
- marijn 16y agoThanks for the promotion. Made my morning.
- mhansen 16y agoMarijn, thanks for writing this. I'm a big fan - I recommend it to my friends looking to learn JavaScript.

- thisisblurry 16y agoWow, that is a great find. And with that, I close my thick O'Reilly book for the rest of the day.
