 ====== JavaScript ======
-This lecture covers the SML Stylesheet Language which allows us to transform XML documents without writing code.
+This lecture covers the JavaScript language that allows us to process information at the client side. The program is created at the server end and travels embedded in the sent document but it runs on the client machine.

+  * The HTML/JavaScript Linkage
-  * The pull and push tags
+  * User-Agent versus the Scripting Engine
-  * Using xpath to select a push point
+  * Language Elements

 ===== To Do =====
-  * Read the rest of Chapter 7
+  * Read Chapter 4  plus Section 7.4
-  * Look at ''Xslt.java''. It implements the transformation given the xml/xsl pair and produces the output on standard output.
+  * Complete the development of ''date.js''. We started this in class and left the program and its hosting page in the //Resource Directory//.
-  * Look at the ''S?.xsl'' stylesheets one by one and in order.
+  * Create an HTML page that prompts for a JavaScript file name and adds the necessary tag to embed it in it.
-  * Look at SS.jspx to implement the transformation in the server.
+  * Examine the DOM scripts in the //Resource Directory// and modify them so (1) they add a child to the list and (2) they do so when triggered by an event, e.g. a click, rather than as a "main method".
