Passing it over to JavaScript
Styling HTML elements with CSS only gets you so far. HTML and CSS are effectively the Flash IDE from the perspective of a Flash developer. What is missing is the code that drives the interaction and functionality within your application. While using Flash, ActionScript is the weapon of choice when creating robust applications.
While developing HTML5 content, JavaScript will be doing the grinding, allowing you to bring life to your HTML elements.What is JavaScript?
JavaScript has been around since the mid 1990s and has grown up to be one of the most popular scripting languages available. JavaScript brings life to HTML documents by adding features such as content modifications, animations, 3D graphics, form submission, and data retrieval all without having to reload the active HTML document. Features such as these allow web content to act more like traditional software applications rather than static web pages.
Unlike ActionScript 3, JavaScript is a true scripting language as it requires no preprocessing or compiling to be run. Just like HTML and CSS, a JavaScript document's source is sent to user upon request and executed on client side. Therefore, unlike technologies such as ActionScript, JavaScript source code is open for public viewing.
