Let's start over again
Why can't we start it over again
Just let us start it over again
And we'll be good
This time we'll get it, get it right
It's our last chance to forgive ourselves
Exogenesis: Symphony Part 2 (Cross-Pollination)
Rise above the crowds
And wade through toxic clouds
Breach the outer sphere
The edge of all our fears
Rest with you
We are counting on you
It's up to you
Spread, our codes to the stars
You must rescue us all
Spread, our codes to the stars
You must rescue us all
Tell us, tell us your final wish?
Now we know you can never return
Tell us, tell us your final wish?
We will tell it to the world
And wade through toxic clouds
Breach the outer sphere
The edge of all our fears
Rest with you
We are counting on you
It's up to you
Spread, our codes to the stars
You must rescue us all
Spread, our codes to the stars
You must rescue us all
Tell us, tell us your final wish?
Now we know you can never return
Tell us, tell us your final wish?
We will tell it to the world

I Belong To You / Mon Cœur S'ouvre à Ta Voix
Mmmh
When these pillars get pulled down
It will be you who wears the crown
And I'll owe everything to you
Woooo, woooo
How much pain has cracked your soul?
How much love would make you whole?
You're my guiding lightning strike
I can't find the words to say
They're overdue
I've traveled half the world to say
I belong to you
Woooo, woooo
Then she attacks me like a Leo
When my heart is split like Rio
But I assure you my debts are real

Mk Ultra
The wavelength gently grows
Coercive notions re-evolve
A universe is trapped inside a tear
It resonates the core
Creates unnatural laws
Replaces love and happiness with fear
Oooo
How much deception can you take
How many lies will you create
How much longer until you break
Your mind's about to fall
And they're breaking through
They're breaking through
They're breaking through
We are losing control
They're breaking through
They're breaking through
They're breaking through
Now we're falling
We are losing control
Invisible to all
The mind becomes a wall
All of history deleted with one stroke

Unnatural Selection
They'll laugh as they watch us fall
The lucky don't care at all
No chance for fate
It's unnatural selection
I want the truth
I'm hungry for some unrest
I want to push this beyond a peaceful protest
I wanna speak in a language that they'll understand
Dedication to a new age
Is this the end of destruction and rampage?
Another chance to erase then repeat it again
Counter balance this commotion
We're not droplets in the ocean

Guiding Light
Pure hearts stumble
In my hands, they crumble
Fragile and stripped to the core
I can't hurt you anymore
Loved by numbers
You're losing life's wonder
Touch like strangers detached
I can't feel you anymore
The sunshine trapped in our hearts
It could rise again
But I'm lost, crushed, cold and confused
With no guiding light left inside
Oooo
You were my guiding light
Oooo
Woah
When comfort and warmth can't be found
I still reach for you
But I'm lost, crushed, cold and confused
With no guiding light left inside
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
When there's no guiding light left inside
When there's no guiding light in our lives
In my hands, they crumble
Fragile and stripped to the core
I can't hurt you anymore
Loved by numbers
You're losing life's wonder
Touch like strangers detached
I can't feel you anymore
The sunshine trapped in our hearts
It could rise again

With no guiding light left inside
Oooo

Woah
When comfort and warmth can't be found
I still reach for you
But I'm lost, crushed, cold and confused
With no guiding light left inside
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
When there's no guiding light left inside
When there's no guiding light in our lives
United States Of Eurasia / Collateral Damage
You and me are the same
We don't know or care who's to blame
But we know that whoever holds the reigns
Nothing will change
Our cause has gone insane
And these wars they can't be won
And these wars they can't be won
And do you want them to go on and on and on?
Why split these states
When there can be only one
And must we do as we're told?
Must we do as we're told?
You and me fall in line
To be punished for unproven crimes
And we know that there's no one we can trust
Our ancient heroes
They are turning to dust
And these wars they can't be won
Does anyone know or care how they begun?
They just promise to go on and on and on
But soon we will see
There can be only one

Resistance
Is our secret safe tonight
And are we out of sight
Or will our world come tumbling down?
Will they find our hiding place
Is this our last embrace
Or will the walls start caving in?
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) But it should have been right
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) To let our hearts ignite
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) Are we digging a hole?
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) This is out of control
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) It can never last
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) Must erase it fast
(It could be wrong, could be wrong) But it could have been right

Love is our resistance
They'll keep us apart and they won't to stop breaking us down
Hold me
Our lips must always be sealed
If we live a life in fear
I'll wait a thousand years
Just to see you smile again
Kill your prayers for love and peace
You'll wake the thought police
We can't hide the truth inside

Uprising
Paranoia is in bloom,
The PR, transmissions will resume
They'll try to, push drugs that keep us all dumbed down
And hope that, we will never see the truth around
(So come on)
Another promise, another seed
Another, packaged lie to keep us trapped in greed
And all the, green belts wrapped around our minds
And endless red tape to keep the truth confined
(So come on)
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
So come on
Interchanging mind control
Come let the, revolution takes its toll
If you could, flick the switch and open your third eye
You'd see that, we should never be afraid to die
(So come on)
Rise up and take the power back
It's time the, fat cats had a heart attack
You know that, their time's coming to an end
We have to, unify and watch our flag ascend

Glorious
Rose-tinted view
And satellites that compromise the truth
I wanted more
With the cuts and the bruises
Touch my face
A hopeless embrace
Faith, it drives me away
But it turns me on
Like a strangers love
It rockets through the universe
It fuels the lies, it feeds the curse
We, too, could be glorious
I need to believe
But I still want more
With the cuts and the bruises
Don't close the door
On what you adore
Faith, it drives me away
But it turns me on
Like a strangers love
It rockets through the universe
It fuels the lies, it feeds the curse
We, too, could be glorious
And satellites that compromise the truth
I wanted more
With the cuts and the bruises
Touch my face
A hopeless embrace
Faith, it drives me away

Hoodoo
Come into my life
Regress into a dream
We will hide
Build a new reality
Draw another picture
Of the life you could have had
Follow your instincts
And choose the other path
You should never be afraid
You're protected from trouble and pain
Why, why is this a crisis in your eyes again
Come to be
How did it come to be
Tied to a railroad
No love to set us free
Watch our souls fade away
Let our bodies crumble away
Don't be afraid
I will take the blow for you
And I've had recurring nightmares
That I was loved for who I am
And missed the opportunity
To be a better man
Regress into a dream
We will hide
Build a new reality
Draw another picture
Of the life you could have had
Follow your instincts
And choose the other path
You should never be afraid
You're protected from trouble and pain
Why, why is this a crisis in your eyes again
Come to be
How did it come to be

Stay away from me

Destroy this City of Delusion
Break these walls down

Justify my reasons

Open skies over me
I am waiting patiently
I'll wait for a sign
As conspiracies unwind
Will you slam shut
Or free your mind
Or stay hypnotised
When the Zetas fill the skies
Will our leaders tell us why
Fully loaded satellites
Will conquer nothing but our minds
And I've waited patiently
And I'll wait for the sign
Carried through the centuries
Secrets locked up
And loaded on my back
Well it weights me down
When the Zetas fill the skies
It's just our leaders in disguise
Fully loaded satellites
Will conquer nothing but our minds
I'm waiting patiently
And I'll wait for the sign, yeah
And I'm waiting patiently

It makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be
And whatever they say
Your souls unbreakable
During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible
Together we're invincible
During the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible
Together we're invincible
Map Of The Problematique
Fear and panic in the air
I want to be free
From desolation and despair
And I feel like everything I sow
Is being swept away
Well I refuse to let you go
I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
Life will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side
And no one thinks they are to blame
Why can't we see
That when we bleed we bleed the same
I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
I want to be free
From desolation and despair
And I feel like everything I sow
Is being swept away
Well I refuse to let you go
I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
Life will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side
And no one thinks they are to blame
Why can't we see
That when we bleed we bleed the same
I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over
Soldier's Poem
Throw it all away
Let's lose ourselves
'Cause there's no one left for us to blame
It's a shame we're all dying
And do you think you deserve your freedom
How could you send us so far away from home
When you know damn well that this is wrong
I would still lay down my life for you
And do you think you deserve your freedom
No I don't think you do
There's no justice in the world
There's no justice in the world
And there never was
Let's lose ourselves
'Cause there's no one left for us to blame
It's a shame we're all dying
And do you think you deserve your freedom
How could you send us so far away from home
When you know damn well that this is wrong
I would still lay down my life for you
And do you think you deserve your freedom
No I don't think you do
There's no justice in the world
There's no justice in the world
And there never was

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
Starlight
I will be chasing the starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore
Hold you in my arms

Burning a candle at both ends
Your self-loving soothes
And softens the blows you've invented
Breathe in deep, and cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss
Crack's healing up
Future soul forgive this mess
You wait twenty years
And wind up alone, demented
Breathe in deep, and cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss

Thoughts Of A Dying Atheist
Eerie whispers
trapped beneath my pillow
won't let me sleep
your memories
and I know you're in this room
I'm sure I heard you sigh
Floating in between
where our worlds collide
scares the hell out of me
and the end is all I can see
and it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all I can see
and I know the moment's near
and there's nothing you can do
look through a faithless eye
are you afraid to die?
it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all I can see
and it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all I can see
It scares the hell out of me
and the end is all I can see
and it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all I can see
trapped beneath my pillow
won't let me sleep
your memories
and I know you're in this room

Floating in between
where our worlds collide
scares the hell out of me

It scares the hell out of me

Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
Hopelessly I'll give you everything
But I won't give you up
I won't let you down
And I won't leave you falling
If the moment ever comes
It's plain to see it's trying to speak
Cherished dreams forever asleep
Hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
Hopelessly I'll give you everything
But I won't give you up
I won't let you down
And I won't leave you falling

Hysteria
It's bugging me, grating me
And twisting me around
Yeah I'm endlessly caving in
And turning inside out
'cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
It's holding me, morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly cold within
And dreaming I'm alive
'cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm not breaking down
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
And I want you now
I want you now
I'll feel my heart implode
And I'm breaking out
Escaping now
Feeling my faith erode
And twisting me around
Yeah I'm endlessly caving in
And turning inside out
'cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out

Falling Away With You
I can't remember when it was good
moments of happiness elude
maybe I just misunderstood
all of the love we left behind
watching the flash backs intertwine
memories I will never find
so I'll love whatever you become
and forget the reckless things we've done
I think our lives have just begun
I think our lives have just begun
and I'll feel my world crumbling
I'll feel my life crumbling
I'll feel my soul crumbling away
and falling away
falling away with you
staying awake to chase a dream
tasting the air you're breathing in
I know I won't forget a thing
promise to hold you close and pray
watching the fantasies decay
nothing will ever stay the same
all of the love we threw away
all of the hopes we cherished fade
making the same mistakes again
making the same mistakes again
I can feel my world crumbling
I can feel my life crumbling
I can feel my soul crumbling away
and falling away
falling away with you
all of the love we've left behind
watching the flash backs intertwine
memories I will never find
memories I will never find
moments of happiness elude
maybe I just misunderstood

Let your hatred grow
And she'll scream
And she'll shout

And I won't hold you back
Let your anger rise
And we'll fly

And we'll burn
No one will recall

This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is the last time I'll forget you

Dead Star
Shame on you for thinking
You're an exception
We're all to blame
Crashing down to earth
Wasting and burning out
Fading like a dead star
Harm is coming your way
It's coming your way
And you used to be everything to me
And now you're tired of fighting
Tired of fighting
Fighting yourself
Shame on you for thinking
You're all alone
If you want I'll make you wish you were
Failing to impress
Why can't you sleep with
Someone who'll protect you?
Harm is coming your way
It's coming your way
And you used to be everything to me
And now you're tired of fighting
Tired of fighting

Wasting and burning out
Fading like a dead star
Harm is coming your way

And you used to be everything to me
And now you're tired of fighting
Tired of fighting

Ashamed
I know there's something that you're dying to tell me
I hope it's not about your iffy affair
Make sure no-one finds out and tell me all about it
Don't keep it to yourself 'cause I can't bear it
I'd never leave you crying
I know you're crying
Doesn't matter 'cause I'm in control
I know that you're ashamed
So bad it nearly kills you
Don't you know that you're ashamed
So much it almost kills you
There's always something that makes you guilty
There's still something that you're dying to tell me
Make sure no-one finds out
And tell me all about it
Don't keep it to yourself
'Cause I can't bear it
I'd never leave you crying
Oh, no you're crying
That doesn't matter 'cause I'm in control
I know that you're ashamed
So much it nearly kills you

Shine Acoustic
Who-oo cares for the life we've earned?
Someone's saved all the truth you've earned
Remember when we used to shine?
And had no fear? Or sense of time?
(It creeps up on you)
You can't cry now
There's nothing to feel
No-one's noticed our loneliness
Remember when you used to tease?
And make us scream eternal joys
We believed that you'll always be here
'Cause once you promised a life with no fear
Please don't break my ideals
And say what's fake was always real
Hope was the one, now I'm gone
Take us back again.

Conforming on a monday
Too often and too cold
But you aren't even listening
Because you are just
Too old to feel an earthquake
Or too cool to even care
But you aren't even listening
So why should I?
You are
A natural disaster
And I've wanted you too much
And now I'm gonna lose
I've wanted you too much
And now I've gotta choose
You're the cause of all this
And I'm sick of trying to please you
And you're gonna feel my emotions coming
Because you're the world
Like a broken damn you're empty
And all that's left are the sticks and stones
That were built by other people
And it really shows
But you aren't even listening
Because you are just
Too old to feel an earthquake
Or too cool to even care
But you aren't even listening

Map Of Your Head
I'm sick of feeling my soul
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because the language confuses
like computers refuse to understand how I'm feeling today
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I saw a liquid control
That gives life to a soul
I hit my head on it and woke up to know
That I was all alone
Wearing just socks and a phone
Someone's screaming like their world might explode
Yeah I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head
Freezing and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because the language confuses
like computers refuse to understand how I'm feeling today
I'm freezing and losing my way

Yes Please
Hooohoooha yes please HAHA!
I cannot sleep
There's too much noise in my head*
I cannot sleep
I want it here instead*
I never thought that this could come to this
I just wanna look at your face in peace now
You'll never miss
But I can
[Maniacal laughter]
I cannot keep
The shame that's clawed us out
I will not keep
Your shut-up, shut-up lies
I never thought that this could come to this
I just wanna live in bliss, in peace now
You will never miss
But I can
[More maniacal laughter]

Recess
Resuscitate
In my sleep
Awake to see
You're never here
But the losing yields
Another year
Facing hopes and fears
And I wish
I could believe there was more
Hopes suffocating
You've kissed my life
And the planes and trains
Are to blame
For tempting us
To refrain
And to cut the chord
Dis every word
Of the truths absurd
And I wish
I could believe there was more
Hopes suffocating
You've kissed my life
Hopes suffocating
Hopes suffocating
Hopes suffocating
And you've kissed my life
In my sleep
Awake to see
You're never here
But the losing yields
Another year
Facing hopes and fears
And I wish

You've kissed my life
And the planes and trains

Shrinking Universe
Cast your eye tears on to me
And I'll show you what you really need
Give too much attention
And I'll reflect your imperfections
Can't you see it's over?
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe
Purposeless survival
Now there's nothing left to die for
So don't struggle to recognise
Now they call it "Heart-felt suicide"
Can't you see it's over?
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe
[Matt Bellamy's falsetto ooooooooooooooooooooooooowawaoo-ing]
Can't you see it's over?
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe.

Megalomania
Paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Could someone tell me please?
The good news is, she can't have babies
And wont accept gifts from me
What are they for?
They'll just grow up, and break the laws you've loved
Take off your disguise
I know that underneath
It's me
Useless device, it won't suffice
I want a new game to play
When I am gone
It won't be long, before I disturb you in the dark
And paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Will someone tell me please?
Take off your disguise
I know that underneath

Who's so phoney and always surrounded?
Stop your screaming, no one can hear
All the scars on your skin: "Post no bills"
Who you were
Was so beautiful
Remember who, who you were
Hide from the mirror, the cracks and the memories
Hide from your family, they won't know you now
For all the holes in our soul host no thrills
Who you were
Was so beautiful
Memories who, who you were
Stop your screaming, no one can hear

New Born
Link it to the world
Link it to yourself
Stretch it like a birth squeeze
The love for what you hide
The bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Soulless is everywhere
Hopeless time to roam
The distance to your home
Fades away to nowhere
How much are you worth
You can't come down to earth
You're swelling up, you're unstoppable
'cause you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Soulless is everywhere
Destroy the spineless
Show me it's real
Wasting our last chance
To come away
Just break the silence
'cause I'm drifting away
Away from you
Link it to the world
Link it to yourself
Stretch it like it's a birth squeeze
And the love for what you hide
And the bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Soulless is everywhere
Destroy the spineless
Show me it's real
Wasting their last chance
To come away
Just break the silence
'cause I'm drifting away
Away from you
Link it to yourself
Stretch it like a birth squeeze
The love for what you hide
The bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Soulless is everywhere
Hopeless time to roam
The distance to your home
Fades away to nowhere
How much are you worth

Link it to yourself
Stretch it like it's a birth squeeze
And the love for what you hide
And the bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Soulless is everywhere
Destroy the spineless
Show me it's real
Wasting their last chance
To come away
Just break the silence
'cause I'm drifting away
Away from you
Hate This & I'll Love You
Oh I am growing tired
Of allowing you to steal
Everything I have
You're making me feel
Like I was born to service you
But I am growing by the hour
You left us far behind
So we all discard our souls
And blaze through your skies
So unafraid to die
'Cause I was born to destroy you
And I am growing by the hour
And I'm getting strong in every way
Yeah, Yeah
You led me on
You led me on
You
Oh, and I'm getting strong in every way
Yeah, Yeah
Of allowing you to steal
Everything I have
You're making me feel
Like I was born to service you
But I am growing by the hour
You left us far behind
So we all discard our souls
And blaze through your skies
So unafraid to die
'Cause I was born to destroy you
And I am growing by the hour
And I'm getting strong in every way
Yeah, Yeah
You led me on
You led me on
You
Oh, and I'm getting strong in every way
Yeah, Yeah
Overdue

Why should I care?
I'm young but I know that I'm aroused
You know that I care
You should have been there
You know that I care
You should have been there
It doesn't matter where I have gone

Pay for all the mistakes that you have made
It's about time I was paid

Java Script
JavaScript bisa disebut adik dari Java yang sengaja dibuat menjembatani kesulitan bahasa pemerograman asli dalam Java, kalau java merupakan bahasa pemerograman dan HTML adalah bahasa kode maka JavaScript adalah bahasa Hybrid artinya gabungan dari kode dan pemerograman.
bahasa pemerograman ini memiliki beberapa keunggulan dibandingkan dengan bahasa pemerograman lainnya..yaitu ukuran filenya yang kecil, akses data cepat, bersifat kompiler-interpreter dan dapat dibaca oleh berbagai system operasi seperti windows ataupun lynux.
Apa yg bisa kita lakukan degan JavaScript?
-JavaScript melengkapi html dengan pemrograman.
-Dapat menulis text secara dinamis dalam html.
-Dapat bereaksi dalam suatu even yang terjadi
-Dapat membaca dan menulis elemen html
-Dapat digunakan untuk memvalidasi data
-Dapat digunakan untuk mendeteksi jumlah pengunjung
-Dapat digunakan untuk membuat cokies
Java memiliki sifat platform independent (terbuka) yang menjadi ciri khas bahasa pemerograman tersebut. Hal ini menyebabkan bahasa pemerograman ini dapat dibaca seluruh komputer tanpa harus mengkonversinya sehingga ketika user sedang berkomunikasi dengan menggunakan fasilitas komputer, user tidak perlu menghawatirkan perbedaan software maupun hardware dari masing-masing komputer.
dalam pembuatan JavaScript, text editor yang memungkinkan untuk digunakan adalah notepad, wordpad dsbb..ada beberapa browser yang mendukung untuk menjalankan JavaScript yaitu Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explore, Netscape dan sebagainya.. ada pula yang tidak mendukung atau mensupport JavaScript.
pada awalnya perkambangan JavaScript dengan pesat disebabkan semakin menjamurnya web yang dulunya berupa text sekarang menjadi lebih interaktif, oleh karena itu munculan CGI (Common Gateway Interface) dengan adanya CGI halaman web dapat menampilkan pencacah pengunjung, animasi sederhana dan masih banyak lagi..sayangnya CGI meletakan beban pemerosesan di server buykan client, akibatnya dengan semakin banyaknya yang mengakses server,lalu-lintas jaringan semakin padat.
Ada beberapa hal yang harus diperhatikan dalam mengelola program dan cara penulisan JavaScript yang benar. Contoh sederhana, kadang orang yang sedang mendalami JavaScript tidak menyadari bahwa JavaScript “case sensitive”, yang artinya JavaScript membedakan huruf besar dan huruf kecil. Sebagai contoh fungsi perintah var tidak boleh ditulis Var dan juga tidak boleh ditulis VAR (huruf besar semua), yang benar adalah var (huruf kecil semua). Perintah lain adalah new Date, yang seharusnya ditulis new date (hurufkecil semua), dan banyak yang lainnya.
dalam penulisan dengan JavaScript, program harus diberi tanda <script> dan diakhiri </script>)
penulisan JavaScript dapat dilakukan dengan dua cara yaitu:
1.Java ditulis dalam 1 dokumen HTML
2.Java ditulis dalam file yang berbeda/terpisah
contoh penulisan JavaScript seperti berikut
<html>
<body>
<h1>Halaman Pertama</h1>
<p id="latihan"></p>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
document.getElementById("latihan").innerHTML=Date();
//-->
</script>
</body>
</html>
untuk menulis di JavaScript kita dapat menggunakan cara yang sama dengan aturan yang ada di bahasaC/C++ ataupun Java.
letak JavaScript dalam HTML yaitu sebagai berikut1. Script pada bagian head
Script ini akan dieksekusi ketika di panggil (biasanya berbentuk fungtion) atau pada event tertentu. Peletakan script dihead akan menjamin script diload terlebih dahulu sebelum digunakan atau dipangil.
<html>
<head>
<title>contoh</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
........
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Script akan dieksekusi ketika halaman diload sampai di bagian <body>.
Ketika menempatkan skript pada bagian <body>, berarti antara isi dan JavaScript dijadikan satu bagian.
<html>
<head>
<title>contoh</title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
........
</script>
</body>
</html>
Script ini berarti akan dieksekusi secara bersamman.
<html>
<head>
<title>contoh</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
........
</script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
........
</script>
</body>
</html>
Terkadang kita ingin menjalankan JavaScript yang sama dalam beberapa kali pada halaman yang berbeda, tetap itidak mau disibukan jika harus menulis ulang setiap halaman.
Untuk memudahkan kasus diatas makam JavaScript dapat ditulis di file secara eksternal. Jadi, antara dokument HTML dan JavaSecript dipisahkan , kemudian file tersebut (JS di panggil dari dokument HTML. File JS tersebut disimpan dengan ekstensi ".JS".
Contoh JS xsternal :
<html>
<head>
<title>contoh</title>
<script src="File.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
sejarah bahasa internasional
asal mula Bahasa Inggris adalah bahasa Jermanik Barat, yang berasal dari Inggris. Bahasa ini merupakan kombinasi antara beberapa bahasa lokal yang dipakai oleh orang-orang Norwegia, Denmark, dan Anglo-Saxon dari abad ke-6 sampai 10. Lalu pada tahun 1066 dengan ditaklukkan Inggris oleh William the Conqueror, sang penakluk dari Normandia, Perancis Utara, maka bahasa Inggris dengan sangat intensif mulai dipengaruhi bahasa Latin dan bahasa Perancis. Dari seluruh kosakata bahasa Inggris modern, diperkirakan ±50% berasal dari bahasa Perancis dan Latin.
Bahasa Inggris tergolong rumpun bahasa Jermanik, dan terutama dari cabang Jermanik Barat. Kerabat terdekatnya adalah bahasa Friesland. Selain itu bahasa Belanda (termasuk pula bahasa-bahasa Jerman hilir lainnya) juga masih dekat. Bahasa Jerman (Bahasa Jerman hulu) agak lebih jauh lagi.
Tetapi dari semua bahasa Jermanik, bahasa Inggris adalah bahasa yang paling lain secara tatabahasa dan kosakata. Kosakata bahasa Inggris banyak dipengaruhi oleh bahasa Perancis, yang masuk melalui penaklukan bangsa Norman dan belakangan melalui penggunaan bahasa Perancis sebagai bahasa resmi selama beberapa abad di lingkungan pemerintahan.
Bahasa Inggris adalah bahasa pertama di Amerika Serikat, Antigua dan Barbuda, Australia, Bahama, Barbados, Bermuda, Britania Raya, Guyana, Jamaika, Saint Kitts dan Nevis, Selandia Baru dan Trinidad dan Tobago.
Selain itu bahasa Inggris juga merupakan salah satu bahasa resmi di organisasi internasional seperti Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa dan Komite Olimpiade Internasional, serta bahasa resmi di berbagai negara, seperti di Afrika Selatan, Belize, Filipina, Hong Kong, Irlandia, Kanada, Nigeria, Singapura, dan lainnya.
Di dunia bahasa Inggris merupakan bahasa kedua pertama yang dipelajari.
Bahasa Inggris bisa menyebar karena pengaruh politik dan imperialisme Inggris dan selanjutnya Britania Raya di dunia. Salah satu pepatah Inggris zaman dahulu mengenai kerajaan Inggris yang disebut Imperium Britania (British Empire) adalah tempat “Matahari yang tidak pernah terbenam” (“where the sun never sets”).
Tata bahasa Inggris memiliki variasi dalam struktur dan penggunaannya, itu tergantung tradisi yang digunakan oleh suatu negara yang dipengaruhi oleh bahasa asli dari negara tersebut. Secara umum, tata bahasa yang dipedomani adalah tata bahasa Inggris Amerika dan Inggris Britania Raya (British).
dan bukan hanya manusia saja yang belajar atau menggunakan bahasa untuk saling berkomunikasi
Semua hewan sosial berkomunikasi satu sama lain, dari lebah dan semut untuk paus dan kera, tetapi hanya manusia telah mengembangkan sebuah bahasa yang lebih dari satu set sinyal yang telah diatur sebelumnya.
Pembicaraan kita bahkan berbeda dengan cara fisik dari komunikasi binatang lainnya.Muncul dari pusat pidato kortikal yang tidak merespon secara naluriah, tapi mengatur suara dan makna secara rasional. Bagian otak adalah unik untuk manusia.Kapan dan bagaimana bakat khusus bahasa dikembangkan adalah mungkin untuk mengatakan. Tapi secara umum diasumsikan bahwa evolusinya pasti proses yang panjang.
Nenek moyang kita itu mungkin berbicara satu juta tahun yang lalu, tetapi dengan pengiriman lebih lambat, kosakata yang lebih kecil dan di atas semua tata bahasa sederhana dari yang kita terbiasa.
Asal-usul bahasa
Asal-usul bahasa manusia mungkin akan tetap untuk selama-lamanya tidak jelas.Sebaliknya asal-usul bahasa individu telah menjadi subyek penelitian sangat tepat selama dua abad terakhir.
Ada sekitar 5000 bahasa yang dipakai di dunia saat ini (sepertiga dari mereka di Afrika), tetapi kelompok cendekiawan mereka bersama-sama ke keluarga yang relatif sedikit - mungkin kurang dari dua puluh. Bahasa dihubungkan satu sama lain dengan kata-kata bersama atau suara atau konstruksi gramatikal. Teorinya adalah bahwa anggota dari setiap kelompok linguistik telah diturunkan dari satu bahasa, satu nenek moyang. Dalam banyak kasus bahwa bahasa asli dinilai oleh para ahli telah digunakan di kali mengejutkan terakhir - sesedikit beberapa ribu tahun yang lalu.
Linguistik kelompok: dari 3000 SM
Kelompok yang paling luas bahasa hari ini adalah Indo-Eropa, diucapkan oleh setengah populasi dunia. Ini seluruh kelompok, mulai dari Hindi dan Persia ke Norwegia dan Inggris, diyakini turun dari bahasa dari suku nomaden yang berkeliaran di dataran Eropa Timur dan Asia Barat (dalam istilah modern berpusat pada Ukraina) baru-baru ini sekitar 3000 SM .
Dari sekitar 2000 orang SM berbicara bahasa Indo-Eropa mulai menyebar melalui Eropa, akhirnya mencapai pantai Atlantik dan pantai utara Mediterania. Mereka juga menembus jauh ke Asia - menduduki dataran tinggi Iran dan sebagian besar India.
Kelompok lain linguistik, signifikansi dalam sejarah awal Asia barat dan masih penting hari ini, adalah keluarga Semit bahasa. Ini juga diyakini berasal dari bahasa hanya satu kelompok suku, mungkin perantau di selatan Saudi.
Sekitar 3000 SM bahasa Semit dituturkan melalui saluran besar wilayah padang pasir dari Arab selatan di utara Suriah. Bangsa Semit Beberapa memainkan bagian penting dalam peradaban awal daerah, dari Babel dan Asyur ke Ibrani dan Fenisia. Dan satu bahasa Semit, Aram, menjadi untuk sementara Lingua franca di Timur Tengah.
Bahasa dan ras
Sebuah keluarga linguistik bersama tidak berarti adanya hubungan rasial, meskipun di zaman modern perbedaan ini sering kabur. Dalam keluarga Indo-Eropa, misalnya, ada kelompok Indo-Iran yang lebih kecil dari bahasa, juga dikenal sebagai Arya, yang berbicara dari Persia ke India. Sesuai dengan teori rasis yang sama sekali tidak berdasar dari akhir abad 19, Nazi memilih Arya panjang untuk mengidentifikasi ras pirang. Pirang atau tidak, bangsa Arya pada dasarnya adalah linguistik daripada keluarga genetik.
Hal yang sama berlaku dari keluarga Semit, termasuk dua kelompok yang telah memainkan peranan utama dalam sejarah manusia - orang Yahudi dan Arab.
Kantong-kantong bahasa
Pada peta Linguistik dunia, kebanyakan keluarga bahasa besar menempati wilayah yang berbeda dan mandiri. Dua pengecualian adalah Indo-Eropa dan Finno-Ugric kelompok.
Di zaman modern, bahasa Indo-Eropa telah menyebar di seluruh dunia - untuk Utara dan Amerika Selatan, Australia dan Selandia Baru - sebagai akibat dari kolonialisme Eropa.Namun pembauran Indo-Eropa dan Finno-Ugric, membentuk selimut kain perca di seluruh Eropa, telah terjadi untuk alasan yang berbeda dan sebelumnya.
Finlandia, bersama dengan Estonia pada pantai yang berlawanan dari Baltik, membentuk salah satu saku terisolasi dari kelompok Finno-Ugric (bagian Finno). Hongaria lain (elemen Ugric).
Penyebab ini adalah pemisahan yang luas dataran tinggi besar di Eropa yang suku Finno-Ugric dan Indo-Eropa telah dibagi dan diperebutkan selama berabad-abad. Bahasa leluhur dari Finlandia, Estonia dan Hongaria pernah diucapkan di daerah kompak antara Baltik dan pegunungan Ural, sampai orang-orang ini tersebar oleh Indo-Eropa tekanan.
Latin dan Jerman: dari abad ke-5
Selama bahasa sejarah terus menyusup satu sama lain, sebagai kata-kata yang disebarkan oleh penaklukan, kerajaan,, agama teknologi perdagangan, atau - di zaman modern - hiburan global.
Sebuah contoh yang masih hidup yang baik dari proses ini adalah baris di Eropa barat membagi bahasa Romantis tersebut (yang berasal dari contoh 'Roma') dari bahasa Jerman. Keluarga Romantis termasuk Italia, Prancis, Spanyol, Portugis dan Rumania (hasil dari kampanye sukses Romawi pada abad ke-2). Kelompok Jermanik adalah bahasa Inggris, Belanda, Flemish, Jerman, Denmark, Norwegia, Swedia dan Islandia.
Pembagian linguistik persis mencerminkan pengaruh kekaisaran Romawi. Italia, Perancis dan semenanjung Spanyol adalah daerah cukup stabil di dunia Romawi untuk mempertahankan pengaruh Latin setelah runtuhnya kekaisaran. Daerah Jerman timur dan utara Rhine tidak pernah sepenuhnya Romawi dibawa di bawah kontrol (garis linguistik yang tepat membagi bertahan di Belgia modern, dengan penduduk berbahasa Perancis di selatan dan Flemish di utara).
Inggris adalah aman dalam kekaisaran selama tiga abad. Tapi bangsa Celtic Romanized tidak cukup kuat untuk melawan suku Jerman menyerang, para Angles dan Saxon.Bahasa mereka menang dalam bentuk Anglo-Saxon.
Bahasa Inggris Modern menempati posisi tengah dalam keluarga Eropa barat bahasa, dengan kosa kata sekitar setengah Romantis Jermanik dan setengah di asal.
Alasannya adalah bukan posisi Britannia yang relatif rapuh dalam kekaisaran Romawi.Penyebabnya adalah lebih baru, dalam penaklukan Norman. Setelah merebut barat laut Perancis dan mengadopsi bahasa lokal, Normandia tiba di Inggris dengan Perancis sebagai bagian penting dari bagasi budaya mereka. Beberapa abad pemerintahan oleh bangsawan Norman dan birokrat membawa bahasa Latin ke dalam bahasa Inggris melalui media Perancis abad pertengahan.
Linguistik evolusi
Perjuangan yang sedang berlangsung antara bahasa adalah proses yang sangat mirip dengan evolusi. Sebuah kata, seperti gen, akan melakukan perjalanan dan berlaku sesuai dengan kegunaannya. Sebuah kata kebugaran untuk bertahan mungkin berasal dari yang melekat pada suatu penemuan baru atau substansi yang diinginkan, atau hanya dari menjadi konsep lucu atau berguna.
"Aspirin", diciptakan pada 1899 oleh penemu Jerman dari huruf pembukaan Acetylirte Spirsäure (asam asetat spiraeic), segera menjadi kata-kata internasional. Dalam 'sombong' konteks kurang serius, pertama diberi makna yang sekarang di Inggris pada pertengahan abad ke-19, sekarang naturalisasi dalam banyak bahasa besar.
Seperti evolusi, perkembangan bahasa adalah kekuatan yang tak tertahankan - meskipun tradisionalis selalu mencoba untuk membangun hambatan terhadap perubahan. Kata berguna 'diharapkan' (panjang tersedia bagi Jerman sebagai hoffentlich, dan makna 'itu harus berharap') dalam beberapa tahun terakhir telah steamrollered ke dalam bahasa Inggris oleh masyarakat terhadap lolongan protes dari puritan.
Pada skala yang lebih besar, pemerintah Perancis dari waktu ke waktu dengan sia-sia terhadap legislates kata bahasa Inggris menyimpang ke dalam bahasa Prancis. Ini adalah hibrida digambarkan sebagai franglais. Contoh yang baik dari kekurangajaran mereka adalah pernyataan menarik pada jaket wol terlihat di jendela toko Paris: Très sombong, presque cad (sangat sombong, hampir cad).
Imperial lidah
Neurosis Prancis tentang menjadi tercemar oleh Inggris (meskipun gangguan itu adalah sepele dibandingkan dengan efek yang luar biasa dari Norman Perancis di Inggris di masa lalu) ini terkait dengan aspek yang lebih luas dari perjuangan evolusi antara bahasa.
Sebuah kemajuan besar bagi bahasa apapun adalah menjadi Lingua franca. Hampir selalu hasil dari kekuasaan dan prestise, status ini dicapai dengan Perancis setelah masa kejayaan pengaruh internasional Prancis di bawah Louis XIV. Pada zaman yang lebih baru Inggris - pertama melalui kerajaan Inggris, namun lebih signifikan melalui dominasi dunia Amerika di abad ke-20 - telah diganti Perancis di peran ini.
Bahasa Inggris di akhir abad 20 berada dalam posisi beruntung menjadi lingua franca pada saat yang tidak biasa. Untuk pertama kalinya dalam sejarah bahasa global diperlukan untuk tujuan praktis (oleh para ilmuwan, oleh pilot maskapai penerbangan).Sementara itu sistem komunikasi di tempat untuk menyebarkan beberapa knowlege dari bahasa Inggris ke khalayak internasional massa melalui radio, televisi dan internet.
Kekuatan imperialis Amerika yang mendukung Inggris sebagai lingua franca adalah untuk pertama kalinya budaya dan ekonomi ketimbang militer.
Pola sejarah menegaskan bahwa bahasa Inggris adalah tidak mungkin menjadi akhir dunia lingua franca. Orang lain akan datang dan pergi. Hal ini juga benar untuk mengatakan bahwa dominasi bahasa Inggris tergantung pada penyebaran dan bukan jumlah total berbicara itu.
Cina dituturkan oleh lebih banyak orang selain bahasa Inggris (meskipun hanya dalam satu wilayah di dunia), dan kekuatan ekonomi Cina terletak di masa depan. Tapi kompleksitas Cina mungkin membuatnya menjadi kandidat saingan tidak mungkin. Salah satu keuntungan besar dari bahasa Inggris adalah bahwa mudah untuk berbicara pada tingkat sederhana, meskipun sangat kompleks dalam idiom tersebut.
Baru bahasa dari tua
Sementara itu proses evolusi berlangsung. Sudah ada banyak jenis bahasa Inggris digunakan. Orang Inggris pidgin berkembang di New Guinea adalah membingungkan bagi orang luar; awalnya dirancang sebagai bahasa bisnis praktis, dikurangi dengan sederhana elemen, telah berkembang karakter sendiri kaya. Dengan cara yang sama berbahasa Inggris masyarakat di Hindia Barat atau di India (juga di Amerika) telah mengembangkan kata-kata lokal, frasa dan konstruksi yang memberikan versi mereka sendiri dari bahasa warna khusus.
Perkembangan yang menakjubkan dari bahasa Indo-Eropa dari satu lidah, hanya 5000 tahun yang lalu, tidak akan terulang di dunia kita lebih saling berhubungan. Tapi kecenderungan bahasa berkembang terus dicentang.
