The Browser version is also supporting the execution of JavaScript-Code. JavaScript (!!!don't confuse with Java!!!) is a Script language, wich may be included inside HTML pages. This allow web pages, i.e. to validate form entries, or it is also possible to create more multimedia featured web pages. It is i.e. possible to create more clearly arranged menu selection, information during mouse moves and many more. The JavaScript module is realized as a modular object, which is only loaded, if the browser detect a page containing JavaScript. This decreases the general memory usage, and the memory is available for other usage. The JavaScript supports currently the JavaScript 1.1 implementation of Netscape 3®, but there are already also some supported features, which are introduced with the Microsoft Internet-Explorer 4 . The JavaScript module supports embedded JavaScript code, which is embedded in the HTML page. The Light of Adamas is the Web browser of the Draconis Internet Package. An access to the Internet is only possible with the drivers of the Draconis Internet-Package.
