In "JavaScript for the Business Developer," author Mike Faust builds the
case for integrating JavaScript into business applications and then
shows the application programmer how JavaScript can help them create
dynamic business applications with Web browser interfaces. Developing
compelling, user-friendly interfaces is one of the best arguments for
using JavaScript when building business applications. Often, an
application functions well and offers bulletproof reliability, but it
has an awkward or outdated look and feel. JavaScript can easily
modernize a GUI interface by making it more dynamic and interactive.
Faust demonstrates techniques to add dynamic elements to applications so
they look like they came right "out of the box." For example, JavaScript
can be used to display information when a user s mouse hovers over a
given field. It also can allow a user to customize elements of the
interfacelike color schemes, font styles, and even the location of
information elements within the application.
"JavaScript for the Business Developer" is specifically geared for
programmers writing common business applications. Spend some time
learning this new skill, and you can bring a more dynamic interface to
your applications. Let this book be your guide to building powerful,
interactive business applications.
