JavaScript simply adds dynamic content to websites to make them look good. HTML work on the look of the website without the interactive effects and all. HTML pages are static which means the content cannot be changed. It adds interactivity to web pages to make them look good.
JavaScript is a text-based programming language used both on the client-side and server-side that allows you to make web pages interactive. Where HTML and CSS are languages that give structure and style to web pages, JavaScript gives web pages interactive elements that engage a user.
I find the Mozilla Developer Network very helpful.

MSDN has a lot of reference materials for web development. It contains only IE-specific information which can be either an advantage or a disadvantage depending on what you are looking for. Here are direct links to the HTML/CSS (includes DOM), JScript (Microsoft flavor of ECMAScript aka JavaScript) and VBScript. The documentation is very well written, and is a great source for answers to DOM/JavaScript questions, since they tend to be mostly the same across browsers.
Also, as references go, let's not forget the official specifications for HTML, CSS, and the myriad of other standards specified by W3C.
Dev Opera is a great resource, especially the Web Standards Curriculum. Another one is HTML dog.
The Unofficial online ECMAScript-262 3rd ed. specification and Annotated ECMAScript 5.1 are very helpful.
I always check www.zvon.org, especially the references section.
HTML Code Tutorial is a decent site, and its Quick List page helps me sometimes.
A really helpfull tool for Firefox (with Firebug installed) http://tools.sitepoint.com/codeburner/
For rapidly find documentation on sitepoint reference.
