Javascript Variable


JavaScript Variables


As with algebra, JavaScript variables are used to hold values or expressions.

A variable can have a short name, like x, or a more descriptive name, like carname.

Rules for JavaScript variable names:

  • Variable names are case sensitive (y and Y are two different variables)
  • Variable names must begin with a letter or the underscore character
The Main thing of javascript variable is u can store any kind of value in that variable even it is string or numeric value.

Note: Because JavaScript is case-sensitive, variable names are case-sensitive.

Example

A variable's value can change during the execution of a script. You can refer to a variable by its name to display or change its value.


var m;

var p;

m = "testing for javascript" ;

p=15;

Check javascript is enable or disable

Hello there In our genreal practice of developing a webpage we use JAVASCRIPT. But do you know what will happen when in clients' browser javascript is disable and in your webpage you used it ?? Nothing will happen as per your expectation. It is good programming practice to check JAVASCRIPT is disabled or not . For example  <noscript>   <meta http-equiv = "refresh" content = "1;url=error.html" > </noscript>   This will redirect to an error page if script is disabled. Just replace error.html with the url of your error page. Or you also can do this   <noscript> <blink>Please enable javascript</blink> </noscript>
