Short language references needed

Damnit, once I get my wiki up I'm going to start keeping track of short language tutorials. I'm starting to use javascript again, and I'm starting to run into the same stupid things I always run into when I need to pick up a language I haven't touched in a while. Say it with me now... "How do I do that again?" Smiley

Luckily I got the JavaScript pocket reference for just such an occasion. Though I don't have the newest version. At least I can rest my eyes looking at real paper instead of the screen Smiley

At work there hangs a printed version of this JS quick reference on the wall. It's quite complete and is good for to quickly see how a function was named and in which browser it is available.
It's from Danny Goodman, the author of the JavaScript Bible, which you can find here. There's even a link to a PDF containing the whole book contents.

When I need "to pick up a language I haven't touched in a while", I'll look at one of the language comparison sites. For me, pixel's "syntax across languages" at http://merd.net/pixel/language-study/syntax-across-languages.html is one of the best ones for this "quick-reminders" purpose. PLEAC http://pleac.sourceforge.net/ doesn't do JavaScript; Bagley's shootout http://www.bagley.org/~doug/shootout/ is more performance-orinted.
