Chris Shattuck's review of Drupal 6 Javascript and jQuery

Chris Shattuck wrote a review of my Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery book. It is an insightful review, and will certainly influence what I do in the second edition. One of the commentors on the blog noted that the review was very detailed and must have taken a long time to write. I agree. Thanks, Chris, for taking the time outlining and evaluating.

While the review was mostly focused on the content of the book, my favorite quote is this:

I was excited enough about the new stuff I learned that I picked up a module that had been languishing for a while and re-wrote a bunch of the code using the principles addressed in this book.

It makes me happy to know that the book prompted people to write (or re-write) code.

Thanks!

Thanks for the review review, Matt, I appreciate it! And, as I mentioned already, I also appreciate the fantastic book. I'm looking forward to the next edition. Have you started on the D7 version yet?

Cheers!
Chris

Cool

Drupal just keeps getting better with time. I used to have a hard time with them but I had a friend show me how to navigate my way around.
