Web Browsers with Javascript?

It's too bad there are no text-mode w3 browsers with some form of
JScript interpreter. The script is not just used to animate images.
I've encountered instances where it's used to pre-process user input on
forms.
Not sure what my school is doing. When I was there, JavaScript
had
yet to be invented. Pascal was the "teaching language". If a Windows
user asks "how do I learn to program", I even suggest starting with
HTML and JavaScript. With IE or Navigator, you have a ready-made
programmiong environment. One can do all the basics in JavaScript:
pattern matching (yes, it's full 'regular expressions'), loops, if-else,
switch(), arrays, user-defined functions, etc, with
c-like syntax, but, without those pesky pointers:). In my employment
situation, I use JScript in some of my w3 content.
