    Select the Client-side scripting we support.

    • Python

    • PHP

    • PERL

    • JavaScript

    • ColdFusion

    Correct Answer
    A. JavaScript
    Explanation
    JavaScript is a client-side scripting language that is widely supported by web browsers. It allows developers to add interactive and dynamic elements to web pages, enhancing the user experience. Python, PHP, PERL, and ColdFusion are server-side scripting languages, which means they are executed on the server before the web page is sent to the client. Therefore, JavaScript is the correct answer as it is specifically designed for client-side scripting.

It is used to host websites, web applications, and services on the internet.

This extension is commonly used to indicate that the HTML file contains Server Side Includes (SSI) directives, which allow the inclusion of other files or dynamic content during server-side processing. The .shtm extension distinguishes these pages from regular HTML files and ensures that the server recognizes and processes the SSI directives appropriately.

    InstallCentral is the correct answer because it is the most logical and appropriate option for a script installer for installing 3rd party applications. The other options, such as InstallCenter, InstallCentre, Common Gateway Interface, and Internet Information Server, do not specifically relate to the task of installing 3rd party applications.
