The HTML <script> Tag
The HTML <script> tag is used to define a client-side script
(JavaScript).
The <script> element either contains script statements, or it points to an
external script file through the src attribute.
Common uses for JavaScript are image manipulation, form validation, and
dynamic changes of content.
To select an HTML element, JavaScript most often uses the
document.getElementById() method.
This JavaScript example writes "Hello JavaScript!" into an HTML element with id="demo":
Example
<script>
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "Hello JavaScript!";
</script>
