Introduction #

JavaScript is the web scripting language developed by Netscape. It is the most popular programming language in the world today. The language was standardized to ECMAScript, as a cross-platform Internet standard for scripting, but it is still most commonly called JavaScript.

Java vs JavaScript #

A lot of people confuse JavaScript with Java and are under the impression that JavaScript is a ‘script-ier’ version of Java and begin to learn it. That cannot be further from the truth; Java is to JavaScript what car is to carpet. They don’t have anything to do with each other.
