JavaScript Coding Standards - Introduction

view a random?

Introduction
JavaScript is a prototype based object oriented programming language. In that all entities in JavaScript are actually prototypes, and instances of these entities may be created at the whim of the developer or user. The language itself follows the syntax of its namesake, belonging largely to the genre dominated by C. It even shares many of the keywords belonging to these languages, though some of these are not used; int is an example of this interesting stance.

JavaScript is supported differently by several different web browsers to varying levels of compliance with widely accepted standards. This often leads developers to create significantly different styles of similar scripts for different browsers. The wide range and degree of JavaScript support in web browsers, in conjuction with the variety of functionality caused by different standards modes in web browser and the variety of functionality that the language itself allows, has led to a huge degree of methods to approach different problems with JavaScript.

It is my intention to create a JavaScript style guideline that can be used by developers to approach typical JavaScript problems in consistent manner.
