Introduction

The Javascript tutorials are intended for complete beginners to the subject. If you've never done any programming before in your life, then this is the place to be. Complete the entire course and you'll have a very good understanding of prgramming in general, and Javascript in particular.

How to Study

You should take things slowly when studying any new computer course. The concepts can be difficult at first, so it's important not to do too much at once. Take your time, and don't be put off if at first you don't undertand the lessons. Come back to the lesson later, and it may seem a little easier. And don't forget to bookmark this site!

Projects

Throughout this course, there are a number of exercises to complete. You should try to do all the exercises, as they are designed to increase your understanding of the subject matter. And don't forget to download any course files along the way!

Software Requirements for the Course

No extra software is needed for this course. As long as you have a browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Mozilla are ideal) then you have everything you need. But a text editor like the Windows Notepad, or HTML editor will make things easier. Windows users can download my free HTML Editor by clicking the link below:

Linux users should have any number of text editors already installed. The scripts have been tested with the Firefox and Konqueror Browsers. (The test machine was running Mandrake 9.1 with the KDE desktop.) Most scripts work, except the events in Mozilla, but we explain why this is, and what you have to do to overcome the problem.
