You can't create a forum or chat room in javascript.

Well you're not going to make one with JavaScript. JavaScript is run on the clients computer which means that it cannot send information back to the server or save information on the users computer (other than with cookies). You would have to use some server side language, I suggest that you learn PHP as this seems to be the most common language for creating forums, like this one for instance.
