New Javascript Basics Video Tutorial Course Released!

php video

PHP nerds,

I’m back … and ready to shamelessly promote!

… I’m quickly settling into my new place (the loft life is over after a decade!) and so time is freeing up for newsletters, videos and articles.

In my continued attempts to transform you guys from know-nothing-wannabe’s, to full fledge web programming guru nerds, I’ve release a new set of video tutorials on Javascript … a complementary language to PHP in the web programming world.

While PHP handily handles the backend/server-side of the web programming equation, Javascript is the language that is used to broker the communication between the browser and PHP … when it comes to all those fancy Ajax effects.

.. Think Google maps, modern blogs, youtube comment functionality etc ..

Anyway, as usual, you can try before you buy by watching a bunch of free sample videos from the course:

If you have any questions, you know how to reach me.

PS: I have a whole bunch of free and NEW advanced PHP videos coming out very soon – say a week.

Thanks,

Javascript DOM basics Video Tutorial

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Hi,

Not directly related to PHP, but nonetheless many a PHP programmers will probably (at some point) have to have their PHP scripts ‘talk’ with some client side code; whether it be to a Flash application or straight to the browser using Javascript.

The DOM is a virtual map of a web page. The DOM along with Javascript allows you to navigate and dynamically change things about the page:

- tags
- text
- attributes of tags

I just released a new video on the DOM from my upcoming beginners course on Javascript and basic DOM scripting:

You can find the entire Javascript beginners course at killerjavascript.com.

Thanks for reading and I hope you find the video useful.

JQUERY Video Tutorial Course.

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009

jquery-box-shot-medium

Hi,

I like to announce our new JQuery video tutorial course.

Though not strictly related to PHP, JQuery is a very popular Javascript library that many PHP programmers find themselves working with.

Besides straight JQuery videos, we do get into some PHP specific subjects:

  • PHP and Ajax
  • PHP and JSON

The table of contents:

* Getting jQuery: Part 1 – 8:22 minutes
* Getting jQuery: Part 2 – 8:57 minutes
* Events: Part 1 – 14:43 minutes
* Events: Part 2 – 13:23 minutes
* Dom manipulation – 10:39 minutes
* Ajax introduction – 10:16 minutes
* Ajax with PHP – 17:59 minutes
* Introduction to JSON – 14:47 minutes
* PHP classes with JSON – 21:21 minutes

-

This is not a one of my completely free courses but I released about 40 minutes of free videos from the course.

About the course:

jQuery is the predominate AJAX / Javascript library that is used by Adobe, Microsoft and many other companies and organizations.

Learning jQuery will make it easy for you to create all kinds of cool DOM and Ajax affects with very little effort. Beyond the canned menus and affects, jQuery also makes it easier for hard-core Javascript and AJAX programmers to get things done.

Thanks for reading,

video tutorial
Hi,

I’ve been away for a little while and I just haven’t had the time to post anything new to the blog. OK, it is probably more of a question of pure laziness on my part I admit. But I’m back and hopefully will have some interesting new PHP stuff for you guys very soon.

In the meantime, I just started releasing a new series of videos on beginners Javascript. Like the PHP basics videos, I am targeting beginners to Javascript in this new series.

There are a few differences about these videos when compared to my PHP videos:

  1. I am using a larger capture size 800×600 – the videos dimensions are bigger.
  2. I am using a new clearer mic. The same mic that Howard Stern uses.
  3. The volume should be much louder.

So if you had trouble hearing or seeing the PHP videos … (for the visually impaired or inebriated) these new Javascript videos should be easier to watch. There are about 10 videos for you to watch at this time.

Hope you guys find them useful.

Ajax Video Tutorials – Free!

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Hi,

I just wanted to announce that I am now giving away a series of video lectures on Ajax – about 3 hrs worth.

The Videos:

Ajax Videos

These videos are not designed to be a tutorial, but rather, they are a lecture. None the less, the videos can help give you at least a basic understanding of what Ajax is all about.

Anyway, they are free, so what do you have to loose!

;)

If you guys want a proper killersites style (simple, practical and to the point) video tutorial, please let me know.

Thanks,

Stefan Mischook
