Java help

[RaptorIV]

I just started to learn java and wanted to know how to make the text lower case

here is my code

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function Run() {//put it in a function so i could use it in a button later on(as a test)
	confirm("I'm going to ask you a question");
	var Input = prompt("Hey? (Y/N)", "");
	document.write(Input.toLowerCase);
	if (Input.toLowerCase == "y") {
		alert("yup");
	}else{
		alert("nah dood");
	}
}
Run();
//-->
</script>

Returns: function toLowerCase() { [native code] }

[authorblues]

it should be

Input.toLowerCase()

also, its javascript, not java. there is a substantial difference.

The first answer I got when I googled "what's the difference between java and javascript?"

Was this -> http://www.htmlgoodies.com/beyond/javasc ript/article.php/3470971

It explains it well. Learn to google questions before asking them. Its a rule of thumb!

Jon's right about the googling... but that article he linked is terrible. I don't think a single sentence is free of error or flawed implication.

An oversimplification would be that Javascript is generally used for website development and Java is generally used for application development. The languages are about as different as languages get.

I think it's quite adequate for 'HTML programmers'.
