Client-Side

Client-side technology refers to the various web technologies that deal with the client end of a www transaction, i.e. with the user agent (browser). Such technologies include :

• Java!
  This hype about this new language by Sun MicroSystems even among non-techies is the most visible manifestation of the coming of age of the Internet.
• Javascript
  This language created by Netscape is the most popular scripting language for the Web.
• ActiveX
  ActiveX is Microsoft's answer to Sun's Java client-side technology.
• VRML
  VRML is Virtual Reality Modelling language. My interests in VRML have to do with using it for data visualization.
