JavaScript is a scripting language from Netscape that is only marginally related to Java. Java and JavaScript are not the same thing. JavaScript was designed to resemble Java, which in turn looks a lot like C and C++. The difference is that Java was built as a general-purpose object language, while JavaScript is intended to provide a quicker and simpler language for enhancing Web pages and servers. JavaScript can be used to fully control Netscape and Microsoft Web browsers, including all the familiar browser attributes. In addition, we cover the following topics:
