<script> Description
The script of a document, contained between <script> and
</script> tags, is where a script a document may have resides.
- language
- Specifies the language in which the script is written (and therefore the
interpreter that the browser uses to process it). Must be "JavaScript",
"ActiveX" or "VisualBasic".
- src
- The "url" specifies the document from which to get the script (if
it is not in the current document).
The <noscript>. . . </noscript>
tags define the text that appears in browsers that do not support scripting
(comparable to the <noframes> tag).
<script> Examples
Here is the example script that resides on this page (do a "View Source" to
see for yourself). The "<noscript>" section notifies people who
are browsing a JavaScript-enabled page with a browser that does not support
scripting, that they will not be able to take advantage of the page's
features:
<![CDATA[
<html>
<head>
<script language=JavaScript>
<!--
confirm("Welcome to the world of JavaScript!");
// -->
</script>
<noscript>
This page requires a browser that can run
JavaScript. Sorry!
</noscript>
</head>
