JavaScript® Bible, Seventh Edition

Appendix B. What's on the CD-ROM

The accompanying Windows–Macintosh CD-ROM contains additional chapters that include many more JavaScript examples, an electronic version of the Quick Reference shown in Appendix A for printing, a complete, searchable version of the entire book, and the Adobe Reader.

System Requirements

To derive the most benefit from the example listings, you should have a Mozilla-based browser (for example, Firefox 3.6+, -, or Camino 2+), Internet Explorer 8+, a WebKit-based browser (for example, Safari 4+, or Google Chrome 5+) or a Presto-based browser (for example, Opera 10+) installed on your computer. Although many scripts run in these and other browsers, several scripts demonstrate features that are available on only a limited range of browsers. To write scripts, you can use a simple text editor, word processor, or dedicated HTML editor.

To use the Adobe Reader (version 7.0), you need the following:

• Macintosh users require a PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor, OS X v10.2.8 or later, at least 128 MB of RAM, and 110 MB of disk space.
