HTML5 Graphics with SVG & CSS3

webmaster@oreilly.de

Want to create exciting HTML5 graphics without spending eternity in JavaScript? You can!

Scraping the Dynamic Web with PhantomJS

webmaster@oreilly.de

Scraping the web for information has always been a difficult task. Web browsers use static HTML to generate a DOM and the HTML is not always complete or correct. Luckily,browsers do an incredible job of rendering a page from poorly written or even broken HTML.

Unfortunately, these solutions are not robust or easy to use for the average web developer. To further complicate things, the web is evolving into a dynamic medium. Instead of learning a new model for extracting information from a web page, why not leverage our understanding of jQuery to reliably get information from a live fully rendered DOM in an automated fashion?

This piece details the new parts in ECMAScript 5 that will be implemented by Chakra (Internet Explorer 9), SpiderMonkey (Firefox), SquirrelFish (Safari), V8 (Chrome), and Carakan (Opera) and other new generation JavaScript engines in 2011. Strict mode is at the core. It not only makes your programs simpler and less error prone but also easier for a JavaScript engine with just-in-time compilation (JIT), such as those listed above, to optimize. That is to say, run faster. Moreover, coding in strict mode, which is totally backward compatible, prepares you for ECMAScript 6, which will require doing so. It also explores a number of new OOP features provided by ECMAScript 5, as well as new iteration methods, JSON handling, and binding and currying. Erscheinungstermin: März
