JavaScript is one of the most powerful dynamos behind the interactive web. This programming language lets web pages respond to your actions in real time. It’s why you can play videos, fill out forms, and engage in the myriad activities that make the World Wide Web so versatile and interactive.
If JavaScript is turned off in your browser, you’re not just missing out on flashy animations or convenient auto-fill forms; you’re opting out of the full, rich functionality modern web developers work so hard to create.
Each web browser will be slightly different regarding how to enable JavaScript. However, there are many common threads that will be similar no matter which browser you use.
