I would try to personally try to stay away from Javascript as much as possible, but I am an admit user of "No Script" because JavaScript has a long history of having many many inherent security flaws and risk. I believe today its a lot better. but years of getting malware strictly due to javascript has left a bad taste in my mouth.

Answer 11

Yes!Learn CSS+HTML+JavaScript for front-end,then Java or Python or Ruby.For frameworks,check out Django for Python,Rails for Ruby ,Pylons for Python or access http://framework.Zend.com for PHP.

Answer 12

lol as an IT I saw it all the time, pinterest 3 years go used to be riddled with malware in the JS, I about 40% of users every week that came into the help desk with malware said they were on pinterest then their computer started acting up.. so I spinned up VMs and tested it out and went on pinterest on one VM and got malware after surfering it for about 10 minutes. then did the same on an Identical vm with "No script" the site didnt work, but didnt get viruses. I would try to do as much scripting with html as possible before using JS.

Answer 13

without inspecting the code.
google it for everything you need.
