JavaScript is intimately tied to the ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=World-Wide Web">World-Wide Web, and currently runs in only three environments - as a ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=server">server-side ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=scripting">scripting language, as an embedded language in ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=server-parsed HTML">server-parsed HTML, and as an embedded language run in web ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=browsers">browsers where it is the most important part of ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=DHTML">DHTML. JavaScript has a simplified ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=C">C-like ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=syntax">syntax and is tightly integrated with the browser ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Document Object Model">Document Object Model.

JavaScript originated from ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Netscape">Netscape and, for a time, only their products supported it. ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Microsoft">Microsoft now supports a work-alike which they call JScript. The resulting inconsistencies make it difficult to write JavaScript that behaves the same in all browsers. This could be attributed to the slow progress of JavaScript through the standards bodies. JavaScript runs "100x" slower than ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=C">C, as it is purely interpreted (ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Java">Java runs "10x" slower than C code). ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Netscape">Netscape and allies say JavaScript is an "open standard" in an effort to keep ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Microsoft">Microsoft from monopolising web software as they have desktop software. ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Netscape">Netscape and ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Sun">Sun have co-operated to enable ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Java">Java and JavaScript to exchange messages and data.
