What server-side language should I learn to be able to start big user-input websites (like twitter, facebook, stackexchange...)?

- by DarkLightA

I'm thinking ASP.NET, but I don't really know. Can someone tell me what a good server-side language for the "Zuckerberg-dorm-room-starting-up-a-huge-website" deal? I know the latter used PHP, but as I've understood it that's kind of outdated and C#/ASP.NET is a better way to go about it. Is HTML + CSS + JavaScript + C#/ASP.NET MVC + MySQL a good combination for it? Is MySQL combined in ASP.NET MVC? Also, where's a good tutorial for the server-side language you suggest? As mentioned previously it has to be able to handle massive user-input without much fuss.

What is the difference between the Boolean object and the Boolean data type in JavaScript?

- by DarkLightA

The Boolean type has two literal values: true and false. Do not confuse the primitive Boolean values true and false with the true and false values of the Boolean object. The Boolean object is a wrapper around the primitive Boolean data type. See Boolean Object for more information. What does this mean? What's the difference between the Boolean object and the Boolean data type??

Can someone tell me why this JavaScript code isn't lining up an array in order?

- by DarkLightA

Live code: http://jsfiddle.net/fCUZC/ //INPUT ARRAY: var input = [28,32,21,11,8,2,14,32,64]; //VARIABLE DECLARATION. a = highest number so far, b = position of that number entireLoop: for (var i = 1; i<=input.length; i++) { if(input[i] > input[i-1]) { for(var o = i; o>=0; o--) { if(input[i-1] > input[o]) { input.splice(i,0,input[o]); input.splice((o+1),1); continue entireLoop; } else if(input[o] > input[0]) { input.splice(0,0,input[o]); input.splice((o+1),1); continue entireLoop; } } } } document.write(input); I'm trying to order the array from largest to smallest, but there's a 32 stuck somewhere. I know there's the sort method, but I'm a newbie and want to try this for myself.

What's wrong in my JavaScript code?

- by DarkLightA

I can't figure out what's wrong. var CarObj = function(passengers, maxLoad, wheels, doors, maxSpeed) { this.passengers = passengers; this.maxLoad = maxLoad; this.wheels = wheels; this.doors = doors; this.maxSpeed = maxSpeed; }; var ferrari = new CarObj(4, "700kg", 4, 2, "360km/h"); var output = new Array(); for (var i = 0; i < ferrari.length; i++) { for (var a in ferrari) { output[i] = a; } } document.getElementById('ELEMENTHERE').innerHTML = (output.join(" "));
