Javascript Documentation

Is there something like JavaDocs for Javascript? When I press ctrl+space in netbeans IDE while

writing javascript, the javascript documentation comes out for the object specified. But this documentation is I guess Netbeans' property.

If we write javascript in proper commented way, Netbeans builds docs for our custom javascript too.

Can we find any such javascript documentation, outside Netbeans? So that we can refer to it?

Thanks for answer.

Have a look at the doc pages at Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) for a static reference:

  • https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference
  • https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Guide

However, I am afraid that there is no tab-completion that can be used inside an IDE.
