For Web applications, there is simply *no choices*.

Note: unlike stated in an above post, Python is not involved in web  
application (just at server level, and among many others). No client side  
web application uses Python, this is always JavaScript.

Some people aware of troubles with this language, use JSLint, which tries  
to make JavaScript a bit more reliable.

The next generation on the web, will still be the same with higher version  
numbers: HTML5+JavaScript+CSS3. This is unlikely to be replaced, due to  
the heavy background of existing websites (some being rather old) and due  
to browsers.

There use to be an attempt to switch to a typed JavaScript, but this  
failed. This explain why the above says HTML5 and CSS3, while still  
JavaScript (always the same as before). The part which evolves here, is  
mostly API (the DOM), not JavaScript.
