Hi Folks,

Just starting to fart around with ASP/Scripting.

Recently realized that there are certain things that can't be
done with server-side VBScript and client-side VBScript only
works for IE on a Windows box (not very protable). I was
wondering why all the code examples I've seen have Javascript and
VBScript mixed in them.

My question is: Can I completely forget about VBScript and write
everything in Javascript (client and server side)?

I already know that server-side Javascript works on my server,
but I can't find any examples for database connections, running
SQL querys, etc...

Am I stuck learning two languages or are there some good examples
somewhere and I'm just not finding them?

thx j-
