Welcome, young grasshopper.

In this chapter we will go over the structure that JavaScript has.
JavaScript uses what is known as an Object Orientated Programming language. If you know another object orientated language, then JavaScript will be a walk in the park.
Now... you may be slightly worried that I am going to start speaking g(r)eek. Not in this tutorial; this tutorial is meant to actually TEACH you something.



I specifically designed this part of the site to be geared specifically towards beginners to the world of JavaScript.
To prove it, study this list (at least 10 seconds) and continue on.
To start coding JavaScript use the <script> tag.
The <script> tag should contain language="javascript" somewhere towards the end of the tag.
This insures compatibility with other browsers.
To stop coding JavaScript use the </script> tag.
Almost all statements in javascript end with a semicolon(;).
In the second chapter you shall test you skills in the ways of JavaScript.
