Hi Wayne,
I am in the same boat as you are and I've found that, for most languages,
the O'Reilly publishing company does AMAZING books.  The have one called
"Javascript:  The Definative Guide".  I'm planning on buying it as soon as
I get through the one I just bought on Web Navigation.  (which is a great
read so far.  Gives lots of information on how to structure sites based on
their purpose.)
Anyway, hope this helps and if you grab this book, let me know what you think!

Erin
