Pro JavaScript with MooTools is unlike any other JavaScript book on
the market today. While similar books focus on either JavaScript as
a language of the browser or how to use JavaScript Frameworks, Pro
JavaScript with MooTools fills the gap between these topics and
moves beyond - exploring the advanced features of JavaScript and
how the MooTools framework uses these features to further improve
the language itself. The book itself takes a unique three-pronged
approach. It first walks you through the advanced features of
JavaScript and the MooTools framework, including native
augmentation and type creation, a comprehensive discussion of
JavaScript functions, Object-Oriented programming with native
JavaScript and MooTools Classes, and the MooTools Class internals.
You'll then learn all about Javascript in the DOM: the Elements
classes and its internals, the MooTools Event system, Selector
engines and MooTools Slick, Ajax and the Request Object, and
Animation and the Fx classes. The final section really sets the
book apart from all others, as it discusses JavaScript outside the
browsers.You'll take an in-depth look at CommonJS and MooTools,
using MooTools outside the browser to build ORM, creating simple
CommonJS applications via the MooTools Deck framework, and creating
complex Server-Side applications using Raccoon. What you'll learn *
How MooTools augments natives and creates new types via the Type
constructor and how it uses the advanced features of JavaScript
functions to extend the language. * All about Object-Oriented
programming in native JavaScript and MooTools Class counterpart -
the internals of the Class Type and other special object-oriented
features that the framework adds to the language. * How MooTools
improves the DOM API via Element and the Events Types; and how
Slick, the MooTools selector engine, uses advanced JavaScript
features to create a fast and easy way to control the DOM. * How
MooTools wraps the native XMLHttpRequest to create a truly
cross-browser implementation and how the MooTools Fx classes create
smooth, powerful animations for the browser. * About the CommonJS
initiative and MooTools support for it and how MooTools can be used
without the DOM to create an ORM that talks to a database outside
the browser.* About Deck and Raccoon: two simple, yet powerful,
frameworks built atop MooTools that enable you to create
server-side JavaScript applications. Who this book is for The book
is for beginner to advanced MooTools users who want to learn about
the internals and deeper areas of the framework, and beginner to
advanced users who want to learn about MooTools 2.0. JavaScript
programmers will also benefit from learning about the more advanced
features of the language and how MooTools uses them. Table of
