You add scripts into your web pages within a pair of <SCRIPT> tags. The <SCRIPT> tag signifies the start of the script section, while </SCRIPT> marks the end. An example of this is shown below: The beginning <SCRIPT> tag includes a LANGUAGE argument that indicates the scripting language that will be used. The LANGUAGE argument is required because there is more than one scripting language. Without the LANGUAGE argument, a web browser would not know if the text between the tags was JavaScript, VBScript or another scripting language. While technically you can place scripts throughout an HTML document using pairs of <SCRIPT> tags, typically scripts are often found at either the top or bottom of a Web document. This provides for easy reference and maintenance. Not all browsers support scripting languages. Some only support JavaScript. Only Microsoft's Internet Explorer supports VBScript. You might be wondering what happens to your scripts when non-supporting browsers encounter them. Usually browsers will do what they do most frequently with text, they will display your scripts as part of the web page. Obviously, this isn't the result you had hoped for. One simple way to address this problem is to encase your scripts in comment tags (<!-- and -->). Below is our example script as it appears with the addition of the comment tags: Now, when a browser that does not support VBScript processes this page, it will view your script as a comment and simply ignore it.
