Programming good Java is not something you learn on a weekend. Java is a serious Object Oriented Language. Any experience with OO-languages help alot. Javascript in fact is not really OO. With various libraries you can give it an OO touch but it´s still only a scripting language.
I recommend any good Javabooks, unfortunately I German and I used http://www.galileocomputing.de/openbook/javainsel6 but that is of course in German. O´reilly has a java book: http://oreilly.com/catalog/javawt/book/index.html http://www.techbooksforfree.com/java.shtml has some more books... So in general search for Object Orientation as it is the principle of modern java programming and Java as the programming language. cheers falko 2008/9/29 Morisato13 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Oh, I noticed that Android runs on Java.
