JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, 5th Edition pdf download.
JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, 5th Edition
The 5th Edition is completely revised and expanded to
cover JavaScript as it is used in today's Web 2.0 applications. This book is
both an example-driven programmer's guide and a keep-on-your-desk reference,
with new chapters that explain everything you need to know to get the most out
of JavaScript, about:-
Scripted HTTP and Ajax, XML processing, Client-side graphics
using the canvas tag, Namespaces in JavaScript--essential when writing complex
programs, Classes, closures, persistence, Flash, and JavaScript embedded in
Java applications, Part I explains the core JavaScript language in detail. If
you are new to JavaScript, JavaScript will teach you the language.
Part II explains the scripting environment provided by web
browsers, with a focus on DOM scripting with unobtrusive JavaScript. The broad
and deep coverage of client-side JavaScript is illustrated with many
sophisticated examples that demonstrate how to:-
- · Generate a table of contents for an HTML document
- · Display DHTML animations
- · Automate form validation
- · Draw dynamic pie charts
- · Make HTML elements drag gable
- · Define keyboard shortcuts for web applications
- · Create Ajax-enabled tool tips
- · Use XPath and XSLT on XML documents loaded with Ajax
- · And much more

Diffrence between A-GPS & GPS
A-GPS & GPS
A-GPS & GPS |
A-GPS
and GPS are different navigational aids that
both use information from satellites to determine their exact location on
Earth. GPS stands for Global Positioning System. A GPS device communicates with
four or more satellites to determine its exact location coordinates anywhere on
Earth. It works in cloudy weather as long as the device has a clear line of
sight to the satellites.
A-GPS stands
for Assisted Global Positioning System. While it works on the same principles
as a GPS the difference here is that it gets the information from the
satellites by using network resources e.g. mobile network, also called
assistant servers.

Global Positioning System

Source of triangulation
information:
|
Radio signals from satellites and
assistance servers e.g. mobile network cell sites
|
Radio signals from GPS satellites
|
Speed:
|
A-GPS devices determine location
coordinates faster because they have better connectivity with cell sites than
directly with satellites.
|
GPS devices may take several
minutes to determine their location because it takes longer to establish
connectivity with 4 satellites.
|
Reliability:
|
Location determined via A-GPS are
slightly less accurate than GPS
|
GPS devices can determine location
coordinates to within 1 meter accuracy
|
Cost:
|
It costs money to use A-GPS
devices on an ongoing basis because they use mobile network resources.
|
GPS devices communicate directly
with satellites for free. There is no cost of operation once the device is
paid for.
|
Usage:
|
Mobile phones
|
Cars, planes, ships/boats
