Hey guys,
I'm starting a new job on Monday as a developer in JavaScript. I have made clear with my employer I am no expert, but willing to learn.
What are some good resources to learn server-side JavaScript (such as tutorials, best practices, etc). Same with ExtJS, any resources would be awesome.
Books are great, tutorial websites are great, examples are great. Anything to get me started.
Thanks!

At PDC'10 last year Microsoft showed their upcoming solution for sharing assemblies between different platforms (Windows Phone, Silverlight, and .NET) – dubbed Portable Library Projects. The release date is said to be H1 2011 so hopefully they are still on track, maybe even to be included in VS 2010 SP1. Until then, we are on our own…

Here is an example of how to add an Ajax Autocomplete Cities List to any website without generating any cross-site scripting errors, and without the need for any server side code or proxies. Fortunately there is not a lot that you need to know to get this running, but if you are interested in knowing how it works and why it does not raise site cross-scripting errors, then checkout the links below the following sample code. This script requires no server side code (php or otherwise) as it uses one of Geobytes' free web services to get the list of cities. OK, first here is a demo:

As modern Web applications have become increasingly interactive and data centric, techniques have been sought to make these applications more efficient. A major breakthrough in this area was the advent of AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML). Since then, developers have continued to squeeze even more performance and efficiency out of every byte. One way to achieve these gains has been the use of JSON.

One of the Zebra project goal is providing proper OOP JavaScript implementation where developers can find well-known OOP concepts. It has been already done and tested in local projects. The latest Zebra JS OOP v1.1.0 is available by http://www.lw-zone.org/download/zebra-1.1.0.js
Alone with proper JavaScript OOP it is very helpful to have classes designed the same manner Java library does it. Zebra provides bunch of JavaScript classes which are close implementation of appropriate Java library classes. For instance it is possible to read remote file by using Java-like InputStream class and applicable Java-like Reader. Find more details following the advertised link.

I recently started working at Instructure, an LMS provider that’s, for the most part, a ruby on rails shop. The team had started using CoffeeScript before I showed up, but gave the decision to me to keep it, or kick it to the curb. I think it says a lot about our company that we can use bleeding edge technology in our flagship product, and I’d hate to make any decisions that would hamper that culture. So, I write CoffeeScript at work.

I'm interested in making HTML5 canvas games. Here's my first attempt so you can see what I'm talking about: Intro to Fixology
I didn't use any libraries to write this, and it was painful. I feel like there must be some good library out there. I found a few online, but unfortunately it's very hard to tell which ones are mature enough to spend my time learning, and which ones are likely to be developed further. I found relatively little discussion on any of them, certainly nothing like mature Javascript libraries like jQuery and mooTools, or game libraries in other languages, like pygame.
Any experience or recommendations?

Suddenly seing this all over the place. Creating an anonymous function and calling it passing a library as its sole argument. What benefits does this provide? Doesn't this make testing a bit more difficult? Or is this a trend that everybody is doing for no apparent reason other than some reputable developer gave some presentation on why you don't know javascript unless you do this: https://gist.github.com/1477431

jQuery is an amazing tool that’s made JavaScript accessible to developers and designers of all levels of experience. However, as Spiderman taught us, “with great power comes great responsibility.” The unfortunate downside to jQuery is that while it makes it easy to write JavaScript, it makes it easy to write really really f*&#ing bad JavaScript. Scripts that slow down page load, unresponsive user interfaces, and spaghetti code knotted so deep that it should come with a bottle of whiskey for the next sucker developer that has to work on it.

The WebSocket Protocol enables two-way communication between a client
running untrusted code in a controlled environment to a remote host
that has opted-in to communications from that code. The security
model used for this is the origin-based security model commonly used
by web browsers. The protocol consists of an opening handshake
followed by basic message framing, layered over TCP. The goal of
this technology is to provide a mechanism for browser-based
applications that need two-way communication with servers that does
not rely on opening multiple HTTP connections (e.g., using
XMLHttpRequest or >s and long polling).

I have a select group with an id, and several options, something like this:
<select id="colors"> <option value="">Pick a color</option> <option value="blue">blue</option> <option value="red">red</option> </select>
How can I use Javascript to set for example the blue option as the selected one? The options are outputted serverside from a database, so I don't know which place each option has in the options array.
