Technologies, Inc., today announced the release of its JS-Sorcerer(TM) 2006 software product, a JavaScript development tool that allows programmers to build correct, interactive, and cross-browser compatible websites and web applications. JS-Sorcerer performs syntax checking and type and flow analysis on standalone JavaScript files, and provides type-safe linking for applications and projects that consist of multiple JavaScript files. Errors are detected and reported at compile time The time it takes to translate a program from source language into machine language. Linker time may also be included in compile time. See compile and linker. (programming) compile time , eliminating the need to invoke a browser simply to catch syntax and typographical errors typographical error - (typo) An error while inputting text via keyboard, made despite the fact that the user knows exactly what to type in. This usually results from the operator's inexperience at keyboarding, rushing, not paying attention, or carelessness. Compare: mouso, thinko. . JS-Sorcerer enables developers to write cross-browser code by making use of a standard interface to ECMAScript, W3C (World Wide Web Consortium, www.w3.org) An international industry consortium founded in 1994 by Tim Berners-Lee to develop standards for the Web. It is hosted in the U.S. by the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) at MIT (www.csail.mit.edu/index.php). DOM, and the XMLHttpRequest (AJAX) object. This unified interface eliminates the need to write disparate, browser-specific objects, thus shortening the development cycle. JS-Sorcerer is available as a plug-in to the Eclipse IDE. Eclipse is an award-winning universal platform for tool integration, software modeling and testing that has been broadly adopted by commercial vendors, academic institutions, and open technology developers. JS-Sorcerer supports MyEclipse and the Eclipse Web Tools Platform. "The increased popularity of AJAX (Asynchronous Refers to events that are not synchronized, or coordinated, in time. The following are considered asynchronous operations. The interval between transmitting A and B is not the same as between B and C. The ability to initiate a transmission at either end. JavaScript and XML XML in full Extensible Markup Language. Markup language developed to be a simplified and more structural version of SGML. It incorporates features of HTML (e.g., hypertext linking), but is designed to overcome some of HTML's limitations. ) to create Web 2.0 applications such as Google Maps Google Maps (for a time named Google Local) is a free web mapping service application and technology provided by Google that powers many map-based services including the Google Maps website, Google Ride Finder and embedded maps on third-party websites via the Google Maps , Backpack and Flickr is testament to the power of the JavaScript programming language," comments Roger Franklin, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.
