JavaScript and Java are two complete different languages. Altough they share most of the syntax they still do not share how they work. I am not an expert in any of the two, but what Ican say is that they way you do thing in Java are different then what you do in java script, since they are aimed for two complete different things.

Also one is a scripting language, while the other one is a compiled language. I saw some classes in javascript, but they are completly different from java classes.

However having said that, if you are willing to learn Java then you should do it, but I sugets to start from the very basic, and then keep going up little by little.

JavaScript and Java may look similar, but are in fact quite different.You don't learn Java by learning JavaScript. So if your goal is to learn Java, why don't start with Java itself. You will be wasting your time if you learn JavaScript first.

It might even be counter-productive. Java is a strongly typed language whereas Javascript is a loosely typed language. You would undoubtedly learn bad habits from Javascript that would be painful to unlearn when moving to Java.- Saish
