ECMAScript
ECMAScript is a scripting programming language developed by Ecma International. If you are a web application developer and if you have not heard about what ECMAScript is, probably you would be surprised if I say that JavaScript (Netscape) and JScript (IE) are extensions of ECMAScript. Ecma international started in 1965 creates standards for communication and information technology. ECMAScript is a scripting language specification (ECMA-262) which became popularly used in the web as a client side scripting language after Netscape introduced it along with Netscape 2.0 from what SUN and Netscape had extended it as JavaScript. You might have already known that there is no commonality between JavaScript and Java itself except that both of them follow the c/c++ style syntax. Microsoft provided its own dialect of ECMAScript called JScript and bundled with Internet Explorer. Since then many browsers started implementing a dialect of ECMAScript with implementation mismatches and few additions not part of ECMAScript. It became the starting point of all those browser incompatibility issues that you might have been cracking your head to fix lot of times.
