The next few pages use JavaScript, which is a kind of computer code which allows Internet pages to do some special things. Some people's Internet browser software is too old for JavaScript, and there are also some people who turn their JavaScript off. If your JavaScript is turned on, then when you tried to click the link in the yellow box, you saw a warning box pop up. This is done with JavaScript. As soon as your mouse pointer touches the link, the warning box pops up. If your JavaScript is not turned on, the link will bring you to a page which explains how to turn on your JavaScript.
