Best JavaScript documentation?

Question

Anyone knows javascript documentation like http://api.prototypejs.org/ website have?

Answer 1

JavaScript (or rather, ECMAScript) is `documented' by an ECMA specification. Here is the 3rd Edition -- Ed 5 is forthcoming.

Each individual JavaScript LIBRARY (Prototype.js is just a library for/in JS) should have it's own documentation. For instance, if you want to look up jQuery documentation, try the jQuery Documentation. Or the MooTools documentation.

For general browser compatibility information (the DOM/CSS is not JS!), try quirksmode.

Answer 2

I always keep the Mozilla Javascript and DOM Reference at hand. Notice that they're specific to the Mozilla implementation of Javascript, but they cover the common basics very well and proprietary differences are usually marked.
