Hey all,looks like JS 2.0 is getting ready to be launched soon.

Get ready to use some hard core OOP concepts.

It seems like JavaScript has gotten closer to actuall Java.

You will be able to use packages,
declare classes,
you will have the ability to state data types such as int..and the list goes on...am looking forward to it.

Awesome, all right! OOP is really powerful and useful. Do you have a link to a document that gives more detailed information about JS2.0?

The only problem will be waiting for browser support... ;)

I'm not going to speak for pyro, but I believe his meaning was that user agents will have to support these new implementations before we can actually make use of them, as far as usability goes--not validation. JavaScript is an extra--that's what I use it for. All pages should work for those without the latest version of JavaScript, and for those who have it disabled; but for those who do have it, we will be able to use new things that were implemented.

I'm going to go look for an article on this, since Khalid apparently doesn't have too much information (unless he didn't see my reply today or yesterday?)...

Guess I should have worded it as such:

"The problem with using JavaScript 2.0 when it first come out will be browsers lack of support for it."

As you stated, making pages that rely on any version of JavaScript is not a good thing...
