    What point? Besides the ones on top of their head?

    You wouldn't use a hammer to tighten a bolt, so why would you use one language when the other is better suited to a particular task?

    Java script is better because

    • JavaScript is the default scripting language for browsers but Vb Script must be specified as the scripting language.
    • JavaScript has cross-platform support from all popular browsers while Vb Script is supported MS IE only. VBScripters would thus loose a sizable audience.

    Your point is pointless.

    Javascript is a client side language. Code executes on the client. As long as java is installed, cross platform nirvana is achieved.

    VBScript is a server side language. Code executes on the server; browser version makes no difference.

    JavaScript client side, or PHP server side.

    "Java" isn't synonymous with "JavaScript". Two entirely different languages and methodologies.


    VBScript is Microsoft; JavaScript is open-source. Go with JavaScript.

    java script and vb script are fully different.
    java script is used java platform
    where vb script is used Microsoft platform.
    therefore , i seem to be that vb script better than java script.

    Java is not a scripting language, Javascript is. The two bear the same relationship as ham and hamburger - an alphabetical one and nothing more.

    java script and vb script both are used for the different purpose.
    but javascript is the best scripting language.

    jQuery is ridiculous. Uses way too much code for tasks that can be accomplished in some cases with basic CSS.

    JavaScript is an object-oriented scripting language used to enable programmatic access to objects within both the client application and other applications. ... JavaScript was influenced by many languages and was designed to look like Java, but to be easier for non-programmers to work with.
