Can anyone recommend a good book on Ajax for beginners?

Hello

I am a programmer (C++) and know a little JavaScript. I need to learn Ajax
for a project and want to buy a good, readable book so I can read on the
train etc to get me started.

Can anyone recommend a good book on the subject?

I come from the same background and found "Ajax in Action"
(http://www.manning.com/crane/) a good primer. "Pragmatic Ajax" covers
the same ground in fewer pages and less detail.

Don't start without a copy of David Flanagan's "JavaScript The
Definitive Guide" 5th edition.

I have several years experience in VB and VBA. I now need to get up to speed on VB.NET and need a book. I don't think I will need a beginners book but one that aims at people with people with previous programming experience, in particular perhaps VB. Can you recommend one?

I'm looking to write a C# book fairly soon, and the publisher I've approached wants me to do a bit of market research to find out what people like and don't like in this kind of book. I've read loads of reviews of best-selling books on Amazon, so I've got some ideas from there, but I'd be very interested in hearing what you all think makes a good C# book. I'm interested primarily in stylistic things - how light-hearted, what kind of...

But, how can he write a book on the good parts of JavaScript and not mention functions that address CSS & DOM? Weird. It's like

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
