The HTML script Tag
The script tag is used to define a client side script (JavaScripts).

The script element either contains scripting statements, or it point to an external script file through the src attributes.

Common uses for JavaScripts are image manipulation, form validation, and dynamic change of content.

To Select an HTML element, JavaScript very often use the document.getElementById() method.

This JavaScript example write "Hello JavaScript!" into an HTML element with id="test":

example
script
document.getElementById("test").innerHTML = "Hello JavaScript!";
