Hi
I'm surprised that when I put this javascript example (from a coding web-page) in my Godaddy public html folder, it didn't work, - it just printed the code.
Must I do anything special to tell the host that i's not plain text, but it's actually code..
I have both index.htm and index.js in the same folder
I have the javascript at the bottom, below, but
This is index.htm that works when called from my URL in my browser:
This is index.js that doesn't work, but just prints the code in the browser...
