I thought they were completely different things. Surely javascript should be seperated from the rest

No need to create another section for JavaScript itself. This section doesn't have to deal with how they work or are used. If it has the word "Java" in it, let it be part of this forum.

All very good points. But you must remember that this is Trap17, not astahost. Astahost is more computer oriented and therefore have more specific subforums. The same reason why they have actionscript and we don't. We just don't have enough members into programming to make it so specific. If we had as many computer related subforums they wouldn't be very full.


But I do suggest that we take javascript out of this subforum and rename the AJAX one to Javascript/AJAX. It fits better in that one.

I would if the sub category was named "Any sport that ends with 'ball.'" tongue.gif

We should add Java coffee to this subforum. It would fit in just right. We could rename the subform to "Terrible things that nobody likes". Ah yes forget my original plan of putting javascript with ajax. This works much better.

What do I need to learn?

there's a big difference...very big I could say
JavaScript is mainly used for interactive stuff on the websites..I you know a bit of C, C++ it's very easy to learn javascript..
Java is something different it's object oriented..and you build applications with this...

you can use it everywhere that's why Java is so loved by some developers because of it's portability..

I guess if you know already the basics of C, C++ or Pascal any other programming language you learn after it's much simple to understand..

but there is no need to know C ..just this I believe it's the best to start learning;

    Java, developed under the Sun Microsystems brand, is a full-fledged object-oriented programming
    language. It can be used to create standalone applications and a special type of mini application,
    called an applet. Applets are downloaded as separate files to your browser alongside an HTML
    document, and provide an infinite variety of added functionality to the Web site you are visiting.
    The displayed results of applets can appear to be embedded in an HTML page (e.g., the scrolling
