language

Summary

Use the type attribute instead. Specifies the language of the script to be evaluated. May be omitted when using ECMAScript (also known as JavaScript).

Applies to dom/HTMLScriptElement
## Usage
 Use this attribute only when you want the browser to evaluate the script in a language or a version of the language other than the default. If the browser does not support the specified language or version of the language, the script will not be evaluated.

Notes

  • See the lang attribute if you want to declare the natural language of your content, eg. French, etc.
  • When a type attribute is also specified, it takes precedence over this attribute and this attribute will be ignored.
