When JavaScript first came out, it couldn't do much. Aside from toys (eg: scrolling text in the status bar) the "serious" uses were mostly: - (hopefully redundant) client-side validation
- some styling (CSS was also brand new)
- basic animation (eg: changing the on-hover appearance of stuff)
- form "tweaking" (eg: disabling/hiding parts of a form dynamically based on other field values). It wasn't really for writing apps in, just for adding small enhancements to apps that did their real work server-side. |
