Scriptlets are one of the most exciting features of Internet Explorer 4.0 and represent an excellent way to project DHTML as a development platform. DHTML will be key to the future of windows programming, but it is also important to web developers in general. IE will support DHTML and Scriptlets on Win32, Win3.1, Unix, Mac, WinCE, so Scriptlets and DHTML are not tied to windows in any way. Thus this book is useful for both Windows programmers and web developers. In the future, using HTML or DHTML will become natural, since you don't have to redistribute anything. Just assume that your software (even a desktop application) will run on a Win9x platform. All this wouldn't be so interesting and appealing if developers had to reinvent the wheel every time they needed some DHTML code. But Scriptlets have been introduced just to facilitate HTML code reuse! Consequently, there will be a strong need for good and useful Scriptlet books as soon as people realize what is changing and the direction that programming is going to take

Review:
Instant DHTML Scriptlets covers the exciting and emerging world of reusable scriptlets, which are written in DHTML as reusable components-- similar in spirit to ActiveX controls. Though this is a Microsoft-specific technology, Esposito demonstrates its potential for Web developers and gives you a head start on this exciting technology.
From the Publisher:
The book begins by situating scriptlets in the world of HTML and DHTML and Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0. Scriptlets are written in DHTML but are self-contained and reusable components that can be distributed and reused across projects. The author assumes basic familiarity with HTML and scripting languages VBScript and JavaScript (though an appendix lists the basics of each) and argues effectively in favor of a role for scriptlets.
Subsequent chapters show off the basics of writing simple scriptlets, including an add-on to Visual Studio 97 for a wizard to automate the creation of DHTML scriptlets. Esposito also shows how to use scriptlets inside Visual Basic projects and describes recent advances such as Microsoft's Server Scriptlets.
With backing from Microsoft, the future of scriptlets is bright, and the material in this concise and worthwhile introduction can let you decide whether scriptlets are indeed right for you. --Richard Dragan
Every programmer that is developing Windows-based commercial code will be interested in a book like this sooner or later, because the indications are that DHTML will be the engine behind the user interface of the next generation of applications. If I'm right, everyone will need a handy reference to Scriptlet programming. It will also be of great interest to anyone developing a web site, using DHTML and wishing to reuse their code at any point.
