Full Name
Javascript (JavaScript or JScript)
Information
An object-oriented scripting language which is used within HTML to provide a rich language for dynamically updating elements of web pages without having to download a new page.
When Javascript is combined with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and HTML (4.0 and later) the result is often called DHTML.
Javascript has been enhanced with a socket capability to GET and POST data from within a page - this is known as AJAX or Asynchronous Javascript and XML
