What is Javascript?
Javascript is a programming language that helps you create interactive web pages. On a Mac, you can enable Javascript in your web browser to view websites that use this language.
Why do you need to enable Javascript on your Mac?
There are many reasons why you might need to enable Javascript on your Mac. Perhaps you are a web developer who needs to test your code in a browser, or you are trying to access a website that requires Javascript. Whatever the reason, it is actually very easy to do.
In most browsers, you can simply go to the Preferences or Settings menu and look for the option to enable Javascript. In Safari, for example, you would go to Safari > Preferences > Security and then check the box next to “Enable Javascript”.
If you can’t find the option in your browser’s settings, you may need to download and install a plugin or extension that enables Javascript. For Safari, there is an official plugin called “Java for Safari” that can be downloaded from the Apple website. Once installed, it will add a new preference pane to Safari where you can enable or disable Javascript.
Enabling Javascript on your Mac is generally a very quick and easy process. If you have any trouble, be sure to check your browser’s settings or look for an appropriate plugin or extension.
