Thank you very much Charles for the references.
Still, I want to know if there are tools/books for the
specific libraries of IE6. I know that some libraries
sometimes gives a different interface and properties than
others, or extra features in addition to the standard. Are
there any changes or extras for MSXML, JavaScript, or any
other library given by IE6? If so, is there any good
documentation and tool for IE6 libraries?
So far as javascript is concerned, the best book out there is the
O'reilly book "Javascript - the Definitive Guide", by David Flanagan.
Get the current edition, which is the 4th. It covers programming with
the DOM, and also differences between browsers.
This book does not cover xml-specific things like xmlHTTP, and so you
still have to go to some of the other resources for them. For
everything else that is strictly javascript-related (e.g., not ADO,
SOAP, etc.), the Flanagan book is superb.
You should also get a good book or two on CSS styling. If you use CSS
right, you can drastically simplify the structure of your output, which
is good both during development and for maintenance. Unfortunately I do
not recall the name of the CSS refernce book I use (it's at home), but
for design usage you can't beat "Eric Meyer on CSS" (and he has just got
a follow-on book released, too).
Cheers,
