 +====== JavaScript ======

 +===== Definition =====
 +
 +**JavaScript** is a programming language used to implement additional functions in [[HTML]]. JavaScript makes it possible to e.g. check input fields or display calendars. ​
 +
 +There are also negative examples of JavaScript use (e.g. pop-up windows that common pop-up blockers can't block anymore). Many [[browser|browsers]] offer the possibility to deactivate JavaScript but this also limits the user's possibilities a lot.
 +
 +----
 +
 +===== Use=====
 +
 +JavaScript was developed for fast execution and is integrated in the browsers. [[crawler|Crawlers]] usually can't interpret JavaScript code and search engines ignore it. Particularly from an SEO point of view this is an important thing to keep in mind.
