I am a beginner programmer. I have a limited knowledge of javascript, but I have only worked in an IDE. I am currently following Lifehacker's programming series which teaches javascript. I have downloaded Notepad++ and have completed a program, but I am not sure of the steps to run it. In the video, the user is able to just send the program to a browser and the code runs from there.
Here is the video for reference: http://bit.ly/gUsMd3
Thanks! (note: i am a beginner to both programming and this site so any constructive criticism is welcome)
Javascript does not need to be compiled, you can put it between <script>
and </script>
in a file, save it as something.html and open it in your browser.
Java needs to be compiled, but that is something completely different.
Just save the sample code to a file, such as "example.html", and then open that file in a browser.
<html>
<script>
alert("hi");
</script>
</html>
