From: VK on 26 Apr 2010 16:13 I am reposting it from my own post of 2006 http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.javascript/msg/7b2a3100608da41e comp.lang.javascript FAQ - April 1996 http://jsnet.sourceforge.net/tmp/clj_1996.htm This is the very first comp.lang.javascript FAQ originally located and supported at http://www.freqgrafx.com/411/jsfaq.html (the page doesn't exist anymore). The version of April 1996 retrieved grace to the support of the Wayback Machine team <http://web.archive.org> This FAQ page was collected and supported by Andy Augustine, who was the very first c.l.j. FAQ maintainer. The posting of this FAQ document in c.l.j. started April 1996, 3 months after the newsgroup appeared - and continued until November 1996. In my "comp.lang.javascript FAQ question" http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.javascript/msg/8954de60cffe6dab I named Gordon McComb as the first FAQ maintainer - this error was caused by the lack of the original documents. He was the second :-) This is a verbatim copy of the obtained document with the following editorial changes: 1) Because of the cardinally changed support of XMP tag in the modern browsers - namely a lack of such - the "original intended look" was restored using PRE tag. 2) External links leading to vanished resources were gray out with not- allowed cursor style (the links themselves are preserved). One may get some nostalgic pleasure of reading - I did :-) |
