• how DOM Levels 2 and 3 augmented the DOM
• events, legacy support, and how the DOM redefined how events should work
• enhancing form interactions and working around browser limitations
• using the tag to create on-the-fly graphics
• JavaScript API changes in HTML5
• how browsers handle JavaScript errors and error handling
• features of JavaScript used to read and manipulate XML data
• the JSON data format as an alternative to XML
• Ajax techniques including the use of XMLHttpRequest object and CORS
• complex patterns including function currying, partial function application, and dynamic functions
• offline detection and storing data on the client machine
