what is Javascript?

please anybody tell me about the javascript. Is it different from java?

 

Javascript is a client-side scripting language for web pages. Read this

The only thing common between javascript and java is the name

 

that means java is different from javascript.

 

yep, a lot

 

Java is a full-blown programming language, Javascript is a scripting language.

 

Java is more a single-paradigm(maybe not technically but effectively) language(object-oriented) where Javascript is more of a multiple-paradigm language. Javascript may actually be a nicer language(if you ignore all the core Java libraries and the fact that it compiles to an intermediate code). Javascript has aspects of the object oriented paradigm, the imperative paradigm and also the functional paradigm.

Javascript is based on the same language standard as Adobe's Actionscript, which also seems like a really cool language. I'm just starting to get into it but I think I'm going to like it.

 

oh, sorry, but too many strange question of this kind today...
What is the PHP? What is the Javascript? Why people don't ask what is the HTML or CSS? How old are you? You should invest your time and money and buy a book for web beginners.

Sorry for OT.
