Can anyone tell me what book would be best to buy to learn js from, I'm currently borrowing a book from someone at school called "Sams Teach Yourself JavaScript in 24 Hours 3rd Edition" and I've just read hour 14.
Anyway I've got to give it back soon, because I'm going on study leave for my exams, and it seems like a good book so I was wondering whether I should buy that one or if there is a better one out there?

I keep on my desk at all times JavaScript : The Definitive Guide by David Flanagan (http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=2V9WVTQ159&isbn=0596000480&itm=1).
I agree with Charles... That book stays within my arms reach...

I would recommend the book above, or
Title:How to Do everything with JavaScript
Author: Scott Duffy
ISBN: 0-07-222887-3
Price: USD$24.99

The JavaScript Bible is supposed to be a good reference material. My copy should be arriving in a few days. Most books I have checked out of the library on JS just confused me, but hey im only 12 so i have some time to figure it out.
