JScript
|
JScript is Microsoft's implementation of ECMAScript. JScript was first supported in Internet Explorer browser 3.0 released in August, 1996. When web developers talk about using JavaScript in the IE browser, they silently mean JScript in the IE browser. It is available through both Internet Explorer and the Windows Scripting Host. The most recent version is JScript .NET, which is based on the yet-unfinished version 4 of the ECMAScript standard, and can be compiled for the Microsoft .NET platform. JScript adds several new features to ECMAScript, such as optional static type annotations.
