About the Author
Stuart Langridge has been playing with the Web since 1994, and is quite possibly the only person in the world to have a BSc in Computer Science and Philosophy. He invented the term ‘unobtrusive DHTML,’ and has been a leader in the quest to popularize this new approach to scripting.
