Hello,

I am teaching myself scripting in InDesign and having problems with the help systems.

I read the scripting docs from Adobe, examine free scripts and use the help in the ExtendScript Toolkit but I lack an education in javascript to really do well.

What books or online resources do you think could help me go from tinkerer to amateur scripter ?

Thanks in advance,
emmanuel.

JavaScript for Beginners is a great book for people with no program 
experience.

Java Script The Definitive Guide is an even better book, but you've got 
to have some programming experience if you want to understand it.
