what is the relationship between ecmascript javascript and jscript?
ECMAScript is the name of the language standard developed by ECMA, from the original Javascript implementation.

So, it's just one language, with different implementations.

The implementations of Javascript and JScript differ somewhat in what they support, but each version supports what's in the corresponding version of the ECMAScript standard. Generally you just use what's supported a few versions back, so that it works in all the browsers that are still in use.
