AJAX isn't a language. It's part of Javascript.

Well, if we start to count on that; we'd have to say then;
1- HTML is not a programming language; as refered in its name, its just a mark-up language.
2- JavaScript is not a programming language either, again as refered in name, its a scripting language
3- CSS is not a programming language either; see the name again.. :)
4- AJAX is definitly not a language, it's better called a set of JS methods and libraries.
Accordingly the only programming language counted in the list is PHP; besides it's being counted in scripting languages at some places.
Whatever, I guess our young friend has a long way to go; but being eager and having enough opportunities he's getting fast to where he likes. Still worth to appreciate though.
Arantor:
Being a scripting language doesn't stop it being a programming language provided it means the criteria for being a programming language, which ultimately comes down to 'does it have variables, can it jump around and can it create loop conditions' and both JS and PHP satisfy.
Decrying it as a scripting language instead of a programming language is like trying to argue that a truck is not a vehicle, because your idea of a vehicle is a car.
The definition of a scripting language really comes down to the fact that it is interpreted not compiled, but it doesn't prevent either from being actual programming languages. Heck, you can actually write a web*server* in JavaScript.
Elmacik:
Arantor, you are very fast on objection. So fast that you are replying without carefully reading. :)
I said "if we start to count on that".. I don't personally think JS is not a programming language. Furthermore, its being a programming language doesn't affect others being not.

lmao, nice shot.
Though guys, I didn't mean to say create your Place O' Spam here, please stop spamming this topic with this discussion, else I'll have to split it into another discussion and I don't feel like doing so.

Actually it's all about you :P
