Painless JavaScript Using Prototype

Article by Dan Webb, 15 pages, 1 hour.
This article shows you how to use the Prototype javascript library in your web pages. It introduces a lot of functionality of the library using small examples. While reading I was already thinking of how I could use the functions in my own web pages, so the article does a good job of drawing you in.

I must admit that near the end of the article the quality of the descriptions and code samples got less, even though this is where the most interesting functions are explained. Maybe the author should split these topics off into a separate article and give them the attention they deserve.
