JavaScript which is previously called LiveScript is a product of Netscape while Jscript is a product of Microsoft.
JavaScript has been supporting from Netscape2 while Jscript has been supporting from IE3. Jscript has a number of additional commands and features as well as interfaces to Microsoft's activeX functionality.
Due to competition with Microsoft for market share, Netscape handed over the control of JavaScript to ECMA ( European Computer Manufacturer Association ) which formalised the JavaScript standard under the name ECMAscript. Recent browsers have removed most of the incompatibilities between Javascript and Jscript. Even, there are few specific areas where both scripting languages are different.
