In the Web Site Development JavaScript Programmer Certificate of Achievement program, programmers will understand how this scripting language works and what it can do for a Web site.
JavaScript is a very light programming language with a very simple syntax! Almost anyone can start putting small "snippets" of code into their HTML documents. JavaScript can put dynamic text into an HTML page. A JavaScript can be set to execute when something happens, like when a page has finished loading or when a user clicks on an HTML element.
