CDN Framework

Framework Google CDN (Content Distribution Network)
Each library is available via both google.load() and directly, via a <script> include. The google.load() approach offers the most functionality, while additional performance is gained by using the <script> tag approach.
The following section lists all of the libraries currently supported by the API. We list the library name (the name used in google.load()) and all of the supported versions.

Chrome Frame
name: chrome-frame
latest version: 1.0.2
load request: google.load("chrome-frame", "1.0.2");
extras: uncompressed:true (as in google.load("chrome-frame", "1.0.2", {uncompressed:true});
path: https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/chrome-frame/1.0.2/CFInstall.min.js
path(u): https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/chrome-frame/1.0.2/CFInstall.js
site: https://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/

Dojo
name: dojo

load request: google.load("dojo", "1.6.1");
extras: uncompressed:true (as in google.load("dojo", "1.6.1", {uncompressed:true});

path: https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/ext-core/3.1.0/ext-core.js
path(u): https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/ext-core/3.1.0/ext-core-debug.js

extras: uncompressed:true (as in google.load("jquery", "1.6.2", {uncompressed:true});
path: https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js
path(u): https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.js
site: http://jquery.com/
note: 1.2.5 and 1.2.4 are not hosted due to their short and unstable lives in the wild...

jQuery UI
name: jqueryui
latest version: 1.8.14
load request: google.load("jqueryui", "1.8.14");
extras: uncompressed:true (as in google.load("jqueryui", "1.8.14", {uncompressed:true});

path(u): https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.14/jquery-ui.js
site: http://jquery.com/
note: This library depends on jquery. You must also load jquery before loading this module. Version 1.8.3 is not hosted due to its short life, and the alias 1.8.3 actually loads 1.8.4.

load request: google.load("mootools", "1.3.2");
extras: uncompressed:true (as in google.load("mootools", "1.3.2", {uncompressed:true});

path(u): https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/mootools/1.3.2/mootools.js

JavaScript Features

Structured programming JavaScript supports all the structured programming syntax in C (e.g., if statements, while loops, switch statements, etc.). One partial exception is scoping: C-style block-level scoping is not supported. JavaScript 1.7, however, supports block-level scoping with the let keyword. Like C, JavaScript makes a distinction between expressions and statements.

Adding a Syntax Highlighter

Image
Syntax or code highlighting is important particularly when you need to show code examples on your blog. It is always a big task to read codes on a blog or a website without syntax highlighting, though they are enclosed with code tags. By integrating the syntax highlighter on a blog or a website, readers can read the code examples easier. There are so many free syntax highlighting scripts available on many websites. Most of the scripts are written in JavaScript, though some of them are powered by other programming languages such as Phyton or Ruby. I believe " SyntaxHighlighter by Alex Gorbatchev " is the most common syntax highlighting script used by most of us. It supports a lot of different languages and you can easily create new "brush" for your language if it is not supported by default.

History and Naming JavaScript

JavaScript was originally developed by Brendan Eich of Netscape under the name Mocha, which was later renamed to LiveScript, and finally to JavaScript. The change of name from LiveScript to JavaScript roughly coincided with Netscape adding support for Java technology in its Netscape Navigator web browser. JavaScript was first introduced and deployed in the Netscape browser version 2.0B3 in December 1995. The naming has caused confusion, giving the impression that the language is a spin-off of Java, and it has been characterized by many as a marketing ploy by Netscape to give JavaScript the cachet of what was then the hot new web-programming language.
