TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I never realized that there were such applications. I just use a programming
text editor. Gives basic syntax highlighting, which is a nice sanity
checker. I know Dreamweaver has a number of built in JavaScripts for a
variety of common actions, so I'd guess that FrontPage also does.
Something else to consider is a cookbook type of book (in contrast to the
typical O'Reilly language reference book). One that comes to mind is Danny
Goodman's JavaScript Bible. Haven't used it personally, but I hear it is
good. There are other good ones as well, but I don't recall any titles.
Another great cookbook type text (though not specifically dedicated to
javascript) is DHTML & CSS for the World Wide Web, by Jason Cranford Teague.
A great book, IMO.

| Can someone recommend a JavaScript editor application? Has

| Antechinus? I saw that in my search.
| Or can you recommend another application?
