hi everyone I want to use Flash 8+Java to create a chatroom, but I don’t know how to use Java(NEVER use it before) what version of Java should I download? How do I use it? Do I need special thing(like support for ASP, etc) to run Java code on a webpage? thanks! ---

You need support for Java on the server (JSP or servlets). Java’s a whole language, you’ll need to learn it before using it. [http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/cupojava/index.html](http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/cupojava/index.html) ---

I actaully think that you can compile java code with notepad so it can be used as a java compiler, editor. ---

ok make java file in notepad Then you run javac on the java file and it will give a you a class file Then you use some good old jakarata or somethign to host it if its jsp, or html to run it on client side IF you are interested in a langauge that makes code that doesn’t have to be compiled to bytecode try python ---
