Really, I wouldn't recommend looking at any libraries, and that
definitely definitely includes Prototype, if you're interested in
actually learning Javascript properly. The libraries are much easier
when you have a handle on how they work. Otherwise, you get up to your
neck in dark magic way too fast...
