====""JavaScript""====
~**""JavaScript""** is a programming language commonly used as part of webpages. It is also used in various applications such as [[PDF PDF documents]], site-specific browsers, and desktop widgets. The support for ""JavaScript"" is included in the host program.

~""JavaScript"" is a different language and environment to [[Java]]. ""JavaScript"" copies many names and naming conventions from Java, but the two languages are otherwise unrelated and have very different semantics. The key design principles within ""JavaScript"" are taken from the [[Self]] and [[Scheme]] programming languages.
