Inline JavaScript (Clip 5): Gentle Introduction to JavaScript

As we begin to write our JavaScript code, we need to know where to put it. Just like with CSS, we have three places we can write our JavaScript:

- Inline with the HTML element using an event attribute.
- Inline using a script element.
- And an external JavaScript file, indicated with a .js extension.

Let's look at the first two options first.
