What is the difference between client-side script and server-side script?

Scripts executed only by the browser without contacting the server is called client-side script. It is browser dependent. The scripting code is visible to the user and hence not secure. Scripts executed by the web server and processed by the server is called server-side script.

Client side execute at Client machine and Server side at web server. The main difference is that client side take less time to execute since it execute at client before it go to server where as server side script take more time coz it required to send the request to server for execution,,, Client side script can be disable where as server side can't disable by end user.

Server side script which avoids manual coding by using server side controls. It makes developer job easier. In client side script when developer writes the manual code to develop the application it is not going to server. It makes no burden on the server. But writing the code is very complexity in clent side script. In server side script the page is going to server every time when the event is fired. So it makes burden on server
