I just read and go through some examples of jQuery UI 1.6 Dan Wellman. Javascript is not really my cup of tea that is why we use jQuery, a framework for easily interact Javascript. jQuery UI is a library built on top of jQuery which allows you to create interactions with all the features widgets and animation effects. This book, written by Dan Wellman is a book that will give you a good foundation in learning this plugin.

The book takes you step by step in the implementation of user interface designs jQuery. What I like about the book is how the author explains a complex topic in a simple. The book is comprehensive and covers all aspects of user interface elements, from here, accordions, dialog boxes, slider, date picker, auto-complete, drag and drop, resizing, selection, classification and other purposes interface. I also like the part where the author presents a basic interface concept and discuss it and then be entitled after tutorials to help you understand fully the idea. I also found the use of helpful screenshots.

The book contains detailed explanations for each component, the creation of its basic defect state in a later stage. In addition, the book also examines how the components can be used in real world scenarios. This book is aimed at designers and UI developers who need to learn to implement user interfaces and quickly. I understand PHP code but is a real challenge for me whenever the JavaScript heavy scripts would be involved.

Total This book is excellent for beginners and contains useful examples, along with some good explanations. My only concern is that I can see some of the content in this book is outdated fairly quickly. If you use jQuery and want to start the implementation of user interfaces quickly and efficiently, you should consider this book to collect insurance.

Where can I write book reviews online?

I'm in my teens and want to write reviews of books on recent books I've read But I can not find a place where I can post my comments. I tried amazon but requires that you have an account. Any suggestions? The only problem with using Amazon is that not only calls for an account, but also for you to make a purchase that I'd rather not do.

Why can not make an Amazon account, then? Or you could start your own web site for tests.
