Using JavaScript and JScript

If you use JavaScript or Microsoft JScript® to access Microsoft Agent's programming interface, follow the conventions for this language for specifying methods or properties:

agent.object.Method (parameter)
agent.object.Property = value

JavaScript does not currently have event syntax for non-HTML objects. However, with Internet Explorer you can use the <SCRIPT> tag's For…Event syntax:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript" FOR="object" EVENT="event()">
statements…
</SCRIPT>

Because not all browsers currently support this event syntax, you may want to use JavaScript only for pages that support Microsoft Internet Explorer or for code that does not require event handling.

To access Agent's object collections, use the JScript Enumerator function. However, versions of JScript included prior to Internet Explorer 4.0 do not support this function and do not support collections. To access methods and properties of the Character object, use the Character method. Similarly, to access the properties of a Command object, use the Command method.
