FAQ Topic - What questions are off-topic for clj?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The comp.lang.javascript newsgroup deals with ECMAScript
languages, so any questions about JavaScript or JScript are
welcome. However, the majority of questions sent to this group
relates to javascript in a web browser. If you are experiencing
issues with a particular browser, or the host is not a browser
at all, please make this information clear.
Javascript and Java are two completely different languages.
Java questions should be asked in one of the comp.lang.java.*
newsgroups; they are not appropriate for clj (as Java and
javascript are distinct programming languages with only
superficial similarities due to sharing a C-like syntax and
some of the characters in their names).
Questions dealing with other scripting languages, such as
VBScript, PerlScript or CGI scripting are also off-topic,
as are HTML-only or CSS-only questions.
Questions that are specific to Microsoft's JScript may also
be appropriately asked at:
microsoft.public.scripting.jscript
