About this title

Synopsis:

When the first edition of Java™ For Dummies® was published, it made Java not only comprehensible but also useable for mere mortals (and not a few professionals as well). Since then, the language hasn't sat still for a moment. Now, in Java For Dummies, 2nd Edition, Java junkie Aaron E. Walsh completely updates his best-selling reference with information on the latest Java developments. Walsh covers everything you need to know in order to add sound, animation, and interactivity to your Web pages by using Java, JavaScript, and HTML extensions. Plus, the bonus CD-ROM accompanying Java For Dummies, 2nd Edition, puts Java development tools and ready-to-use (and ready-to-modify) applets right into your hands.

From the Back Cover:

Focused on bringing Web sites to life with sound, animation, and interactivity, Java For Dummies shows beginning to intermediate Windows 95 and Macintosh users how to obtain, install, test, and troubleshoot Java applets and JavaScript scripts within their very own Web pages.You'll also find out how to assemble sound clips, music, animation, video, special effects, and more for immediate access by millions of Web surfers around the globe.

This handy reference not only explains the ins and outs of Java but even shows you how to use the Web itself as a resource for gathering even more exciting and innovative Java applets and scripts!

Use Java the fun and easy way:

• Uncover URLs to the best Java-powered sites on the Web
• Explore various Java applets and scripts on your very own CD-ROM
• Personalize your Web pages with Java animation, music, marquees, and more
• Create eye-catching multimedia Web pages
• Find an introduction to JavaScript: Get your feet wet while keeping your head above water
