VBScript

Definition by Best Host Ratings

Short for Visual Basic Scripting Edition, a scripting language developed by Microsoft and supported by Microsoft's Internet Explorer Web browser. VBScript is based on the Visual Basic programming language, but is much simpler. In many ways, it is similar to JavaScript. Yet, Netscape web browsers do not interpret VBScript. Thus, the only environments VBScript will operate are intranets that only use Internet Explorer or web sites that declare the site as best viewed in Internet Explorer.
