Notes

In order to use JavaScript to control a web browser, you need to know about the Document Object Model (DOM) of that browser. Most modern browsers conform at least loosely to a standard DOM, but it is always a good idea to test the particular functions you are using in a variety of browsers. (Pre-packaged code is often written to automatically detect browser type/version and use the appropriate identifiers.)
