If you consider JScript the same as JavaScript, which I do ......
Or even ECMAScript

Overview
This section contains a non-normative overview of the ECMAScript language.
ECMAScript is an object-oriented programming language for performing
computations and manipulating
computational objects within a host environment. ECMAScript as defined here
is not intended to be
computationally self-sufficient; indeed, there are no provisions in this
specification for input of external data
or output of computed results. Instead, it is expected that the
computational environment of an ECMAScript
program will provide not only the objects and other facilities described in
this specification but also certain
environment-specific host objects, whose description and behaviour are
beyond the scope of this specification
except to indicate that they may provide certain properties that can be
accessed and certain functions that can
be called from an ECMAScript program.
A scripting language is a programming language that is used to manipulate,
customise, and automate the
facilities of an existing system. In such systems, useful functionality is
already available through a user
interface, and the scripting language is a mechanism for exposing that
functionality to program control. In this
way, the existing system is said to provide a host environment of objects
and facilities, which completes the
capabilities of the scripting language. A scripting language is intended
for use by both professional and nonprofessional
programmers. To accommodate non-professional programmers, some aspects of
the language
may be somewhat less strict.
