JavaScript

JavaScript is an object-oriented scripting language that provides interactive components such as mouse effects or field validation. Validation checks the data users have entered against specific criteria designers have set. When using Domino formulas to validate, the validation request has to be processed on the server and the error message (if any) rendered back to the browser. This is called roundtrip processing. One of JavaScript's benefits is that processing is done at the workstation level and not on the server. Processing at the workstation level improves performance because there does not have to be a roundtrip to the server, so network traffic is reduced.
