methods, error handling and fast processing etc.
Client Side Scripting Client Side scripting is performed to generate a code that can run on the client end without needing the server-side processing. It does not require web server. It helps to increase faster execution by minimize server access. It is less secure system. But on the client side, scripting programming languages like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, VB Script, and other front-end languages can be used. Client-side scripting emphasizes making the interface of the web application or website more appealing and functional.
