    JScript is microsoft's implementation of javascript/ECMAScript.

    There is no significant differences as far as I know.

    I know that they have the same core to work with numbers, arrays etc.
    Btw, I'm not clear on the difference in IE.

    The MSDN say I can choose the type.

    "sType String that specifies or receives one of the following values.text/ecmascript ECMAScript.
    text/Jscript Microsoft® JScript®.
    text/javascript JScript.
    text/vbs VBScript.
    text/vbscript VBScript (same as text/vbs).
    text/xml XML."


    I have the web application that contains a lot of client scripting.
    When I change the type from jscript to javascript nothing happens it goes the same. This is not so important for me I just want to get if there is any diff or not.

    as far as I know there is no difference, as JScript and Javascript both implement a version of ECMAscript.

    I am prepared to be proven wrong though! :)
