    Hi,

    Can anybody please explain how JavaScript is better than other scripting languages? I know most search engines do not read JavaScript so, is there any alternate of this language??

    Javascript is just(mostly) a standard language that is implemented by all the popular browsers. You can use vbscript in IE if you want.

    IE will work with VB script, but it's IE only, Javascript is crossbroser, for client side scripting you choice is javascript, no doubs about it. The search engines do not read javascript, but you will use Js for dinamic functions, the main content will be html, totally search engine friendly :)

    Regards,

    Javascript is a scripting language, not a server side language like Python, PHP and ASP. Its good for implementing small features, changes and effects but its not wise to code a whole application out of them.
