    What is the difference between Javascript and HTML?

    Question #43092. Asked by elizabethmc. (Jan 07 04 2:37 PM)

    HTML is the language in which web pages are written to be interpreted by the server as a graphic interface. Javascipt is similar, but is actually a web-adapted version of actual programming code, intended to write applets (small, web-based applications) for use on websites. They are both a type of code, but html is NOT a programming code. The HTML defines what the webpage looks like, the javascript handles things like counters, games, etc. Other web-based scripting languages, such as php and asp can be used to create entire webpages, but, like Javascript, are generally confined to handling what goes beyond the cosmetics of a website. The cosmetics are what HTML is for.

    Hope you enjoy the quiz. Note: I have not included the "<" and ">" signs in the tags as this makes the tags disappear.
