I'm thinking about getting a couple books for Christmas from my wife, and one I like the looks of are these:

1. DOM Scripting: Web Design w/ JavaScript and the document object model. ISBN: 1590595335

2. DHTML Utopia from Sitepoint. ISBN: 0957921896

3. CSS Mastery: Advanced Web Standards Solutions. ISBN: 1590596145


Number one from the reviews on Amazon looks very nice. All 5 star reviews.

I like Sitepoint Books also, but is there much or any difference in what these two books would cover?

The CSS book has no reviews, but is written by some well known designers, so I'm thinking it might be a good read too.

I bought the Sitepoint one, and I have to say it was disappointing. I often find their books can be a bit hit and miss, but that one just left me cold. It may well be useful for you though, just don't expect anything indepth :)
