Javascript Essentials Course - A 2 Day Course
Synopsis
JavaScript is the key to producing powerful and interactive web pages. Historically JavaScript has been used to provide feedback and validation for user input, but is now being increasingly used to provide a more dynamic user experience.
The standard course normally takes 2 days but a 3 day version is available allowing time for exercises in the advanced and dynamic aspects as well as introducing Ajax. Workshops concentrating on specific aspects can also be provided.
