Siebel eScript Concepts


Standard JavaScript, or ECMAScript, is usually part of Web browsers and is therefore used while users are connected to the Internet. Most people are unaware that JavaScript is being executed on their computers when they are connected to various Internet sites.

Siebel eScript is implemented as part of Siebel applications and is interpreted by the Siebel Object Manager at run time. You do not need a Web browser to use it. It also contains a number of functions that do not exist in ECMAScript. These functions give you access to the hard disk and other parts of the Siebel client workstation or server.
