How is JavaScript different?

Post by jessepit »

Hello,I beg your pardon in advance because I am a beginner. If JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, and Python are all scripting languages, than why is JavaScript kindof in a category by itself when the others seemed to be classed together. What is different about JavaScript for it not to be considered as seriously as the other three?

Javascript is the language that runs in the browser. PHP, Ruby, and Python are languages that run on the server.
