Save yourself some money... JS:TDG was basically a rewriting of the
following documentation:
Download:

unzip them to a convenient directory and bookmark their index pages.
It's the best guide/reference to core JavaScript.
Then catch up with the rest here (basically, DOM interaction) on the ng
or other online resources... once you get the basics down - the rest is
pretty easy.
I bought JSTDG -- looked at it ... oh, maybe twice -- you can't even
tell the binding has been bent. It may very well be the best book on JS
"out there," (and I wouldn't argue) but it doesn't have anything in it
particularly special to make it worth the money that you don't already
have easy access to for free.

Hi
I am currently learning JS and have heard a lot of good about that
book even if it's a reference and better suited for intermediate to
experienced users.
My local bookstore has both the 3rd and 4th edition and the 3rd is at
a fraction of the 4th ed. price.
Is it a mistake to grab the 3rd ed. instead of the 4th. in order to
save money ?
Thanks to all
Patrick
