Thread: Java-Script

How many people know that JavaScript, and Java are two completely different things.

haha I remember when I first got into web design I always thought java and JavaScript was the same thing when really they're not.

How about you?

LOL! I am not into Java at all, so I never knew it :P

Java is a full-blown programming language for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It's used to applications for desktops, mobile phones (Nokia's Symbian, for example), server-side scripts, etc. JavaScript, on the other hand, is a scripting language for Web browsers. They have similarities in syntax (both are object-oriented anyway), but second is a lot easier to learn than the first.
