Java Is To JavaScript As Car Is To Carpet

java-memes, javascript-memes, programming-languages-memes, naming-confusion-memes, developer-frustration-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The meme brutally murders the misconception that Java and JavaScript are related just because they share "Java" in their names. It's like assuming cars and carpets are related because they both start with "car." The naming similarity is purely coincidental—JavaScript was named during the peak of Java's popularity as a marketing gimmick. One's a compiled, statically-typed language that runs on a virtual machine; the other's an interpreted, dynamically-typed language that powers the web. Different ancestors, different purposes, different ecosystems. Next up: explaining why hamburgers contain no ham.

Content You shouldn't use client javascript to access databases for several reasons (bad practice, security issues, etc) but if you really want to do this, here is an example: 748 var connection new Activexobject ("ADODB .Connection") ; var connectionstring "Data Source server; Initial Catalogcatalog ;User IDuser; Password connection. Open (connectionstring); new ActiveXObject ("ADODB. Recordset"); rs. Open ("SELECT FROM table", connection); rs.MoveFirst while(!rs.eof) document.writers.fields (1)); rs.movenext; rs. close; connection. close; A better way to connect to a sql server would be to use some server side language like PHP, Java, NET, among others. Client javascript should be used only for the interfaces. And there are rumors of an ancient legend about the existence of server javascript, but this is another story. ;) Share Edit Follow Flag edited Jun 24 '09 at 13:27 answered May 13 09 at 12:29 Fabio Vinicius Binder 12.5k 4 30 32
