I started out on Javascript some time ago and bought O'Reilly's offering 
of "Javascript, the Definitive Guide" by David Flanagan.

Can't compare against any other books because I only otherwise had HTML 
& XHTML by Musciano and Kennedy.

I understand you asking : I have a copy of BSD hacks which I feel wasn't 
exactly a great purchase.  Don't think I learnt anything from that book 
that I hadn't already learnt from the man pages + brain engagement.

 From this amazon.co.uk search it looks like I'm at least two editions 
out on Javascript and there's a new version in the wings ...

Sorry about the long url. :|
