Scripting

Scripting is the process of making all (or part) of a web site dynamic. Scripting can be done server-side, client-side, or a combination of both.

Why Does This Matter to Me?

Scripting allows all or part of your web site to change based on user actions (such as logging in), which section of the site a user visits, or requests to the server by you, the site owner.
