ABSTRACT

HTML and JavaScript (JS) are technologies out to change the world. Or, more likely, they already have and have simply not given up on the change. Hardly a single day goes by without a new capability being added to the presentation powers of JS and HTML5. In a few short years, the web browser has gone from being relatively slow to a media machine capable of rendering games that people would swear were on modern gaming machines. Today it is even possible to play games inside a web browser using only a game pad one might use to play later on an XBOX or Playstation (and they will even look as good). JavaScript and HTML have come a long way since their early days as simply document markup and display.
