Rep Power: 7  |  JavaScript. Yea or Nae? If your browser isn't listed can you let me know what you're using. I was going to have 'IE < 6', 'Mozilla' and 'Other' but ran out of spaces, damn poll limits >_< Cheers |

Rep Power: 7 | Re: JavaScript. Yea or Nae? JScript is Microsoft's version of ECMAScript, while JavaScript is Netscape/Sun's version of ECMAScript. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECMAScript http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JScript http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript So yes, JavaScript is like JScript, but they're not entirely interchangeable |

Rep Power: 15 | Re: JavaScript. Yea or Nae? I'm assuming you've looked in the Firefox javascript submenu? I turn all those off. Providing you're not using javascript in an "annoying" way, you should be fine. |

Rep Power: 7 | Re: JavaScript. Yea or Nae? @pete: You and I seem to be in the minority, although I prefer to use NoScript rather than disabling completely. TBH I'd rather avoid JavaScript and use CSS :hover and CSS2 selectors, but IE6 doesn't implement them properly/at all and if our userbase is primarily IE6 I may have little choice in the matter. |
