Step by step Javascript book: A Smarter Way to Learn Javascript, by Mark Myers. About $17 at Amazon This book doesn't assume you know any programming, so you'll have to quickly read early parts. Does assume you know HTML and CSS pretty well. Only covers the little bits of JS you add to HTML, not the job of writing a whole app in JS, but does well on that. And these small snippets of JS avoid using the weird parts of JS, so it doesn't interfere with understanding Java or PHP.
