September 20, 2007; 07:14 AM
(PRWEB) September 20, 2007 -- JavaScript Essential Training takes viewers through the process of using JavaScript to fully realize a site's potential, from understanding the basics to creating real-world samples. Instructor Dori Smith explains how to work with objects, create buttons and forms that interact with site visitors, make rollovers, menus, slideshows, and countdowns, and take advantage of other practical applications. Exercise files accompany the tutorials.

"Industry expert Dori Smith has recorded her first tutorial with lynda.com, and we could not be more pleased. JavaScript can be tricky, even for people who are somewhat familiar with the language. With our new JavaScript Essential Training, these complex processes are presented in an accessible way," says Lynda Weinman, CEO of lynda.com.

Anyone with an internet connection can access JavaScript Essential Training by subscribing to lynda.com's Online Training Library®. A separate CD-ROM version of JavaScript Essential Training is planned later this month.

Subscriptions to the lynda.com Online Training Library® start at $25 a month, and provide access to over 22,000 movie tutorials covering more than 320 technology career tools, software applications, and techniques.
