Javascript is the programming language which is used inside web
pages to make them interactive and to produce effects which are
not possible otherwise, such as scrolling messages, validating forms,
and automatic generation of pages based on the configuration of
the computer.
Javascript, as taught in this course, is an international standard
developed by the ECMA and supported by both Microsoft and Netscape.
Javascript is the worlds preferred solution for controlling
Java and ActiveX applets, and for doing client-side forms validation.
While Javascript is a programming language, it is very simple one,
and can be learnt very quickly. Furthermore, it is not necessary
to understand the language in detail in order to use it. Many Javascript
programs are available freely on the Internet for inclusion into
web pages.
As well as teaching how to program in Javascript, this course teaches
how to find publicly available Javascript programs and how to adapt
them to your own purposes.
By the end of the course you will have collected a number of such
programs and should have functioning code for the most common tasks.
