Novice Java Script V.S.VB Script Question?

Michael LaFranc #1 / 5	Novice Java Script V.S.VB Script Question? Is it true that VB Script will not work in Netscape, but Java Script will run in both Netscape 4.0 and I.E. 4.0 or higher? I would like to know all the advantages before I invest a lot of time in learning one. Thank You, Michael

Michael Harri #2 / 5	Novice Java Script V.S.VB Script Question? VBScript works only in IE unless you purchase a plugin for Netscape. JScript and JavaScript are both compliant implementations of the ECMAScript specification. It's worth your while to learn both since VBScript is the {filter} (and default) language for IIS/ASP server side code (which is completely browser neutral). -- Michael Harris Is it true that VB Script will not work in Netscape, but Java Script will run in both Netscape 4.0 and I.E. 4.0 or higher?

Doeke Zanstr #3 / 5	Novice Java Script V.S.VB Script Question? Well, VBScript does work in NN, but it needs a plug-in, that nobody has. So practically, it doesn't work. Javascript is the prefered client-side scripting language. Javascript works form IE3.0 (I think) and NN1. (netscape designed the language).

Jason Smit #4 / 5	Novice Java Script V.S.VB Script Question? Well, VB Script is probably easier, but it is really only good for server side scripting if you are doing Internet apps. You can run JavaScript on the server side if you want to. I think before it is all said and done, you will end up learning both languages. Then all you need to know is Java, VisualBasic, SQL, XML, HTML, TCP/IP, Unix, NT, ....he he :-) There is a reason why we are so well paid. This stuff ain't that easy. /Jason Quote: > Is it true that VB Script will not work in Netscape, but Java Script > will run in both Netscape 4.0 and I.E. 4.0 or higher?
