Javascript

Javascript Summary

I hate to admit it, but I'm not too familiar with javascript, also known as ECMAScript. I'm starting to have more faith in it. Its lame-o issues like cross-browser incompatibilities that annoy the heck out of me.

I like to use javascript for GUI stuff mostly, not too much beyond that. AJAX is the use of javascript to make http requests and handle server responses, pretty cool if you ask me.

Javascript Example

location.href='index.php'

UPDATE

I've certainly become a lot more familiar with Javascript since I first wrote this article. I'd still say I'm more familiar with jQuery, but I've also learned a lot more about software engineering in general. However, I still don't use enough straight up javascript on an everyday basis to have become an expert at it.
