Originally Javascript was intended for “enhancing” static web-pages with dynamic behaviour and was therefore positioned as an HTML extension for a long time. This is also reflected by Javascript documentation on the web; Naturally the target audience is the web-developer and almost every introduction puts Javascripts into HTML context, failing to explain underlying language concepts. Douglas Crockford is one of the few who tackles Javascript as a programming language.
