Can anyone describe what is the difference between script tag "text/javascript" and "javascript"??

text/javascript is the MIME type, and is the standard way of specifying the script language, as in type='text/javascript'. Just javascript is the old school method, as in language='javascript'. You can put them both on the script tag, but language='javascript' does not validate (via validator.w3.org).
