 | JavaScriptNot to be confused with Java, JavaScript is a dynamic language that is used to provide rich user experiences in the browser. JavaScript has gained tremendous popularity in the past several years with the rise of websites using AJAX(Asynchronous JavaScript and XML). AJAX allows the browser to make requests to a web server without page reloads, thus enhancing the user experience. Gmail is one of the most popular AJAX applications. JavaScript is an incredibly expressive, prototypal language and is quite fun to work with, although there are issues with cross-browser compatibility. To help mitigate these issues, you can use one of the popular JavaScript frameworks such as jQuery, MooTools, Prototype or Dojo. If you want to get serious about building great web applications, you need to have JavaScript in your tool belt, as it opens up many possibilities for web applications. Recommended Books
