Excerpt: Pro JavaScript Design Patterns
by Ross Harmes (in Articles)

JavaScript libraries were the hot topic last year, and have made
it easy for us to build ever more powerful applications--but are
you making best use of the object-oriented capabilities of
JavaScript? The latest and greatest book on the subject, from
Yahoo!'s Ross Harmes and Google's (and Digital Web author) Dustin
Diaz, takes a detailed look at OO best practices and how they can
be applied to JavaScript—and this week Digital Web is happy to
present an entire chapter to whet your appetite: The Adapter
Pattern.

by Tiff Fehr (in Book Reviews)

In their new book, Ross Harmes and Dustin Diaz share their
expertise in object-oriented JavaScript programming, and take us
to new heights by demonstrating how to build design pattern
conventions, all based on JavaScript's unique flexibility. Digital
Web's Tiff Fehr takes an objective look at Pro JavaScript Design
Patterns.

detailed look at an alternative way to write browser-specific CSS
while still keeping your stylesheets valid. Will you be making "no
more hacks" your New Year's resolution?

Why Opera?
by Matthew Pennell (in Interviews)

Opera's legal shenanigans caused no small amount of hand-wringing
last month--to the extent that we almost forgot that there was a
browser at the center of it all. Firefox might get all the anti-
Microsoft press, but when was the last time you had to fix a
layout in Opera? Never? Read on to find out what the world's
oldest browser company has in store for us codemonkeys this year.
