browser scripting

Client-side scripting describes programming that is added into a web page to interact with page and browser objects. JavaScript is the most common scripting language; VBScript is also used. While client-side scripting is limited, it does provide basic functions that practically all of the 'better' web sites have integrated into their pages.

Typical functions include:

• Image/Button rollovers
• Verify user's form data
• Detect users browser type and select matching content
