Eren the short answer is to cause or behave in different ways in response to a user's actions. However, js has a wide variety of creative abilities.

Eren it looks like imo that it is from where "javascript:" to fire and which part "main." and what to fire "innerHtml" I looked at several sources and it looks like an sql format not (a) typical as onclick=main()
