Scripts

Scripts are bits of code or full applications that can be integrated into an existing web site or CMS, or run on their own to add new functionality. Some scripts run from server side processing while others are operated by the browser. Our developers and writers at WebDevNews and Attackr work with scripts on a daily basis, and some write their own for clients and the Open Source community. If you are looking for news and information regarding scripts, or have some good 'how to' guides in how to install or manage them, please consider sharing your knowledge with the developer community by blogging on WebdevNews and Attackr.
