Are you referring to, for example, PHP? I.e., the code isn't visible
to the viewer of the page, but is executed in the process of creating
the HTML the viewer gets. Thus non-intrusive.

No. That's server-side code. I'm talking about what is called "non-intrusive JavaScript". The non-intrusiveness comes in when you look at the HTML source of the page and you don't see any JS code at all, not even a <body onload="blah"> . All it has is one or more instances of <script src="/code/elsewhere.js"></script>. All the hooks are done in the code (by accessing the HTML objects through the DOM) rather than in the HTML itself.
