What Can I Do with Javascript?
Javascript is well-suited for performing tasks within a Web browser. It is not well-suited for interacting with a server. With Javascript you can:
- Detect what browser a person is using and customize the Web pages to their browser
- Swap images on a page to create rollovers
- Perform calculations in forms and check to ensure that entries in the form are correct
- Interact with multiple frames
- Prompt users for information and use it to customize a page
These are just a few of the many things that Javascript can do. This tutorial will not cover all of Javascript's features, but it will show you how to construct simple scripts and point you to other sites where you can learn more.
