JavaScripts can be thought of as a extension of HTML. They allow you to add simple functionality to their web page without having to use CGI or some other server-side technology to process data. JavaScript can be used in many different ways, it can layout pages, gather information from the user, change colors, display the current time, and much more!

JavaScript is not a programming language, but rather a scripting language. Scripting languages differ from true programming languages in that scripting languages are made up of a series of commands that are executed by the browser. Scripts are not complied so they can be run on any platform that has a JavaScript enabled browser.

In order to install a JavaScript on your web site, you simply need to insert the JavaScript coding into your HTML document inside of a <SCRIPT> tag. It is also a good idea to enclose the actual script coding in comment tags (<!-- and -->) so that older browsers are not confused by it. ADD STUFF HERE
