I'm looking to implement some sort of graphical client, within a web browser. I know that this has been done before, without requiring the page to be reloaded. They used either Java or Javascript, can't remember which. IIRC, Java is useful on the networking side, whilst Javascript is useful when you need firm control of the browser itself. Does anyone care to supply advantages/disadvantages of each, and what each should be ideally used for? Should I be looking at both Java *and* Javascript, to complement each other, or should I concentrate on using just one of them? How much of the Java/Javascript functionality does the potential DHTML/DOM standard encompass? -- Greg Munt, greg#uni-corn,demon.co.uk "I'm not bitter - just twisted." <A HREF="http://www.uni-corn.demon.co.uk/ubiquity/">http://www.uni-corn.demon.co.uk/ubiquity/</A> </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00456" HREF="msg00456.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Java and Javascript</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> coder#ibm,net</li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00344" HREF="msg00344.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Java and Javascript</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Matt Chatterley <root#mpc,dyn.ml.org></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00336.html">[MUD-Dev] Arctic's Project?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00338.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Unique items (was: Graphic MUDS/Ultima Online)</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00341.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Arctic's Project?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00344.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Java and Javascript</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00337"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00337"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] MetaVoice, MetaFont</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00348" HREF="msg00348.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] MetaVoice, MetaFont</A></strong>, Richard Woolcock <a href="mailto:KaVir#dial,pipex.com">KaVir#dial,pipex.com</a>, Fri 30 Jan 1998, 17:02 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00351" HREF="msg00351.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] MetaVoice, MetaFont</A></strong>, Vadim Tkachenko <a href="mailto:vadimt#4cs,com">vadimt#4cs,com</a>, Fri 30 Jan 1998, 18:05 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00352" HREF="msg00352.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] MetaVoice, MetaFont</A></strong>, JC Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,Eng.Sun.COM">claw#under,Eng.Sun.COM</a>, Fri 30 Jan 1998, 18:42 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </ul> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00341" HREF="msg00341.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Arctic's Project?</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Thu 29 Jan 1998, 15:49 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00337" HREF="msg00337.html">Java and Javascript</A></strong>, Greg Munt <a href="mailto:greg#uni-corn,demon.co.uk">greg#uni-corn,demon.co.uk</a>, Wed 28 Jan 1998, 21:22 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00344" HREF="msg00344.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Java and Javascript</A></strong>, Matt Chatterley <a href="mailto:root#mpc,dyn.ml.org">root#mpc,dyn.ml.org</a>, Fri 30 Jan 1998, 08:18 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00456" HREF="msg00456.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Java and Javascript</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Sat 14 Feb 1998, 00:41 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00462" HREF="msg00462.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Java and Javascript</A></strong>, Matt Chatterley <a href="mailto:matt#mpc,dyn.ml.org">matt#mpc,dyn.ml.org</a>, Sat 14 Feb 1998, 19:00 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00494" HREF="msg00494.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Java and Javascript</A></strong>, Caliban Tiresias Darklock <a href="mailto:caliban#darklock,com">caliban#darklock,com</a>, Mon 16 Feb 1998, 20:15 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
