Originally developed by Brendan Eich of Netscape Communications Corp., JavaScript (not to be confused with Java) is an object-oriented, scripting language (a lightweight programming language) which is generally  coded  directly in  the  HTML   source. It is

most often used for client-side web development to add interactivity in HTML pages : embellishing designs, opening menus, validating forms, detecting browser's version and managing cookies are all commonly done with JavaScript.

Its activation is required to access certain features of websites using it.

JavaScript and Java (developped by Sun Microsystems) are two different languages : Javascript is an interpreted language designed to add interactivity to HTML pages; it is usually embedded directly into those, making it browser dependant, while Java is a far more complex programming language used to create complete applications that are platform independant.
