This book is an addition to my bookcase because it goes in detail with subjects like SVG, REST, JSON, XQuery and mashups.

To get my Adobe Air and Flex skill up I`ve also grabbed 2 books about it;

The first book gives is a detailled guide to making your own Flex and Air skins with tools like Photoshop, Flash and Fireworks.

The second book tells me how to use Flickr, Amazon, Google, Twitter, and Last.fm in Adobe Flex/Air situations to make my own programs and mashups.

MooTools is a compact, modular, Object-Oriented JavaScript framework designed for the intermediate to advanced JavaScript developer.

Changelog

  • roughly a dozen issues fixed or closed (in lighthouse)
  • Numerous documentation updates
  • Spinner: Adding a getSpinner method to Request in Spinner’s refactoring of that Class
  • Spinner: Fixing default styles
  • Form.Validator, Date: Added Ukrainian translations
  • Date: Added new Date parser (parses “Thu Oct 22 08:11:23 +0000 2009”)
  • Fx.Accordion: handling the alwaysHide option so you can still have returnHeightToAuto set to true
  • Tips: Restoring arguments to the show/hide events; tip no longer defaults to display:none (this restores the previous behavior)
  • Fx.Reveal: stores cssText whenever it starts a transition and restores it when it finishes or is canceled, leaving the element without a bunch of inline styles, as if you’d just done setStyle(‘display’, ‘block’/’none’)
  • Fx.SmoothScroll: adding a “scrolledTo” event
  • Drag: added new ‘stopPropagation’ option
  • HtmlTable.Select: ensuring that instances only delegates to immediate children (for nested tables)
  • HtmlTable.Sort.js: detects and sorts date columns more accurately, handles negative integers and floats
  • Reorganized scripts json so Depender can implement Log
