My First Two Weeks of Javascript

         In the first few weeks of this new school year we have learned many things about  Javascript. Javascript is the scripting language of the web. One of the things we have learned about is AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) which is the art of exchanging data with a server, and updating parts of a webpage. We learned about creating Javascript statements using Dreamweaver. For example, <script language = "Java Script"> window.prompt ('Enter your name:',"); </script>. Another thing we learned about is writing Javascript in HTML documents and forms. Forms and form elements have unique names.
        One other topic we discussed so far was Javascript variables. The variables contain data. To declare a variable you must type "var variablename". Javascript is loosely typed. We also learned about the "DOM" (Document Object Model).  It is a model of web browser objects. New browsers use the standard DOM by W3C. DOM  is an internal road map of objects on a web page.
