In the following years, the development of JavaScript was continued and in cycles were released new versions of specification. Other browser vendors could use this specification to prepare their implementation. In 1997 was published the language specification called ECMAScript as a ECMA-262 standard. Netscape submitted JavaScript to Ecma International to “standardize the syntax and semantics of a general purpose, cross-platform, vendor-neutral scripting language”. Industry needs caused that decided to standardize language. Since that time there were two versions of JavaScript. In 1996 they released Internet Explorer 3 with their own implementation of JavaScript called JScript.
#JAVA SCRIPT CODE#
Java code needs to be compiled while JavaScript code are all in text. Java creates applications that run in a virtual machine or browser while JavaScript code is run on a browser only. In this time Microsoft to compete with Netscape decided to include scripting technologies in their browser. Java is an OOP programming language while Java Script is an OOP scripting language. Soon JavaScript 1.1 was released in Netscape Navigator 3.
JavaScript 1.0 was a success and helped Netscape Navigator’s to hold the leader position of the market. This, but above all the desire to use the growing popularity of Java to call positive associations with a new language where reasons that it was finally called JavaScript. Also implementation of the language for server-side was introduced. LiveScript followed a lot of Java features. In the same 1995 year new developed scripting language was renamed to JavaScript and used in next beta version of Netscape Navigator 2. First version of new language had Mocha name, whereas official version used in Netscape Navigator 2 beta version was called LiveScript. ECMAScript is the official name of the language. ECMA-262 is the official name of the standard. JavaScript was invented by Brendan Eich in 1995, and became an ECMA standard in 1997. In 1995 Netscape Communications employed Brendan Eich to develop scripting language for web browser. JavaScript and Java are completely different languages, both in concept and design. Eventually they decided to create scripting language that would complement Java and has a similar syntax. Then they wanted adopting and embedding a existing programming language like Scheme, Perl or Python. First Netscape Communications cooperate with Sun Microsystems to use in Netscape Navigator Sun’s programming language Java. JavaScript to program the behavior of web pages. JavaScript language comes from the times when early web browsers were being developed. Netscape Communications company in 1994 created Netscape Navigator that became the most popular web browser in the 90s.Ĭompany’s board quickly realized that browsers should allow create more dynamic websites and do some activities that do server-side languages, like input validation. JavaScript is one of the 3 languages all web developers must learn: 1.
