JavaScript (formally known as LiveScript) is a system of programming codes developed by Netscape and is not to be confused with the Java programming language - despite there being some similarities.
JavaScript was created in order to run small programming tasks within HTML web pages. Placed directly into any HTML page, and run on the user's computer by the web browser, JavaScript enables websites to offer simple interaction and dynamic content.
Examples include button clicks in response to users' actions, validation of form input and the creation of image rollovers.
JavaScript is an open language which is free for any programmer to use or adapt.
