# JavaScript Guidelines

Some other important things to know when scripting with JavaScript.

## JavaScript is Case Sensitive

A function named "myfunction" is not the same as "myFunction" and a variable named "myVar" is not the same as "myvar".

JavaScript is case sensitive - therefore watch your capitalization closely when you create or call variables, objects and functions.

## White Space

JavaScript ignores extra spaces. You can add white space to your script to make it more readable. The following lines are equivalent:

    name="Hege";
    name = "Hege";

## Break up a Code Line

You can break up a code line within a text string with a backslash. The example below will be displayed properly:

    document.write("Hello \
    World!");

However, you cannot break up a code line like this:

    document.write \
    ("Hello World!");
