Early Adopter Curl (Paperback)
暫譯: 早期採用者的 Curl (平裝本)

The Curl Content Language, and the accompanying Surge Lab IDE represent one possible look at the future of web content. A fully object-oriented language, Curl takes the greatest features of HTML, Javascript, DHTML and Java and combines them into a cross-browser, cross-platform technology that's easy to learn and has some serious power behind it. The result of six year's development, Curl is the first language designed specifically to encompass all the problems of building a web application on the client-side and cut away the World Wide Wait we encounter everyday.

As well as providing a tutorial to the Curl language itself, this book also provides a great introduction to its graphics and multimedia capabilities and will give developers everything they need to know to start applying Curl technology in real world situations.
