| Client-side scripting | Server-side scripting |
|---|---|
| Script code is downloaded and executed at client. | The script is executed at the server-end and the result is sent to the client-end. |
| Response to interaction is more immediate once the program code has been downloaded. | Complex processes are more efficient as the program and associated resources are not downloaded to the browser. |
| Services are secure as they do not have access to files and databases. | Have access to files and data bases but have security considerations when sending sensitive information. |
| Browser dependent | Does not depend on browsers. |
| Affected by the processing speed of user's computer. | Affected by the processing speed of the host server. |
