JavaScript is a scripting language with some similarities to PHP. However it is generally used very differently, for example to check that a value entered in a web form is numeric, before it is sent to the destination page, or to change the colour of a link when the user's mouse moves over it. There are many books devoted to JavaScript (not to be confused with the programming language Java, which is entirely different). Our only use of JavaScript in this book will be in connection with popups.
