Re: Javascript class

I would agree (btw I'm a big fan of all the O'Reilly books, but they are
better for directed learning or for those who already know "a little bit").

What little experience I have with the HWG classes has led me to believe
that they require a bit of search and research, external to the class. I
kind of think of this as a bonus though. Since it is all about the Web
answers can be easily found and the information sticks better when you have
to search for it (at least it does for me).

Besides, the price and the company can't be beat.
