| Note: | A scripting language developed by Netscape that adds interactivity to web pages. Its name reflects a shared syntax with the Java programming language. |
| Designed by Sun Microsystems and Netscape as an easy-to-use adjunct to the Java programming language, JavaScript code can be added to standard HTML pages to create interactive documents. As a result, Java-Script has found considerable use in the creation of interactive Web-based forms. Most modern browsers, including those from Microsoft and Netscape, contain Java-Script support. |
