JavaScript is a client-side scripting language most commonly used to add interactive functionality to web pages. Although it delivers a wide range of helpful features, the language is perhaps best known for allowing website owners to deploy pop-up windows. Widely seen as an annoyance, many users elect to disable JavaScript in their Web browser as a way to avoid pop-ups. Whether you use NetZero or any other Internet service provider, enabling JavaScript in your browser is a quick task once you know where to look.
