function onData |
(http://safari5.bvdep.com/9780596514037/parsing_json_data_in_javascript)
The line var books = eval(httpObj.responseText);
does not compile for me. I have looked up the resulting Syntax Error on google and found out that it
does work if you add some extra parenthesis like this
var books = eval( "(" + httpObj.responseText + ")" );
I understand that this is a json problem probably having to do with the version of the php json library.
Here's a page on the problem:

Label.htm
So it's not technically an erratum but I'd like to report it anyway, since it was an embuggerance for me
and likely will be so for other users. Apart from that - great book.
One more thing. There are no page numbers in the online book so I gave the chapter instead. You might
want to have the form fixed.
