Javascript Programming
JavaScript is an interpreted programming or script language from
Netscape. It is somewhat similar in capability to Microsoft's Visual
Basic, Sun's Tcl, the UNIX-derived Perl, and IBM's REX. In general,
script languages are easier and faster to code in than the more
structured and compiled languages such as C and C++. Script languages
generally take longer to process than compiled languages, but are very
useful for shorter programs.
JavaScript is used in Web site development to do such things as:
- Automatically change a formatted date on a Web page
- Cause a linked-to page to appear in a popup window
- Cause text or a graphic image to change during a mouse rollover
and others.
JavaScript uses some of the same ideas found in Java, the compiled
object-oriented programming derived from C++. JavaScript code can be
imbedded in HTML pages and interpreted by the Web browser (or client).
JavaScript can also be run at the server as in Microsoft's Active Server
Pages before the page is sent to the requestor. Both Microsoft and
Netscape browsers support JavaScript, but sometimes in slightly
different ways.
Our consultants are
focused on web-based distributed cross platforms (Unix, Linux, Microsoft
Windows) and cross technologies (Java) application development. Our
approach helps identify the correct technology for your organization,
leveraging your existing assets and integrating various software
technologies in order to provide the best-value solution with the lowest
total-cost-of-ownership.
We are capable of completing projects in any stage of progress,
whether you’re starting from scratch, or the project has already been
fully specified or whether development is nearly done and the results
need to be thoroughly tested.
