Introduction
In order to view most web pages, including this one, you’ll need to have JavaScript enabled in your Android browser. This guide will show you how to do that.
What is JavaScript?
JavaScript is a programming language that allows Websites to interact with visitors. It’s often used to create interactive pages, which can respond to events (such as mouse clicks or form submissions) and dynamically display content (such as animations or scrolling text).
Despite its name, JavaScript is not related to the Java programming language.
