The object/class systems are entirely different as well. The only similarity, other than both being somewhat object-oriented and sharing a generic OO-like syntax, is the name.

Post #164,180 by deSitter 7/13/04 10:46:34 AM Reply	Care to answer the original question? I don't know if JS or J is broken - chances are pretty high that the Sun VM interacts strongly with the WSH. I never had problems with the original MS setup. -drl

Casual (not business) users of IE who can't be arsed to install something better won't meet with much sympathy (or help, for that matter), I think. You're especially not going to get much help without a clearer description of the problem (Javascript applet??). Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."

Post #164,196 by deSitter 7/13/04 11:25:08 AM Reply	Re: You don't have steps to reproduce it? I just uninstalled the Sun JRE and Java Web Start. We'll see what happens. I've got everything back to "normal" for Windows. The main symptoms were - sluggish network and image painting. Right now it's fine. -drl

Post #164,200 by pwhysall 7/13/04 11:54:09 AM Reply	Why are chances high that the Sun JVM interacts with WSH? Given Microsoft's relationship with Java, I'd say the chances are, in fact, minimal. Remember, kids - Java != Javascript. (Or ECMAScript. Or LiveScript. Or whatever you'd like to call it.)
