1. Re: Jboss and Java versus Javascript
joelvogt Sep 11, 2002 8:27 PM (in response to grebwv)It all depends on what your application needs to do. If it is just static html pages with a little bit of fancy gui type work, then javascript might be all you need.
However if you want it to actually 'do' something (I assume you do, like database access etc), then java is going to be a few billion times more useful to you.
Having said that, you might also not need jboss unless you are going to need transactions and the other features it provides. (j2ee generally == overkill, which is what you do need in a lot of complicated cases).
There are plenty of other solutions, but I doubt anyone would really consider javascript one of them. -

prabhakar Sep 11, 2002 10:35 PM (in response to grebwv)I have used Javascript and Java for web applications. Java offers you an enterprise environment with a lot of functionality and complexity. Javascript is simple to learn, but not suited for heavy duty applications.
