No programming book would be complete without an initial example application just to get the reader started, and this book is no exception. In addition to a quick confidence boost for the novice this serves as a good opportunity to check that the environment being used for the rest of this book is fully functional.

Using your favorite editor create an HTML file with the following content:
<html> <head> <title>My First JavaScript Example </head> <body> <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"> document.writeln( "Hello World" ); </script> </body>
