JavaScript Resources

What is JavaScript? It is a scripting language developed by Netscape to make your pages more interactive. You don't really have to be a "programmer" to catch on to it. It is relatively easy to learn. You can make your pages more fun by adding things like clocks, prompt boxes, alerts, text rollovers, scrollers, and adding logic. It is written inside your html document inside the script tags.
The best tutorial I have found is Website Abstraction's JavaScript Primer. It has a lot of examples and goes into just the right amount of detail for a beginner.

It would probably help to subscribe to a JavaScript mailing list.
