So, I've been learning Java, and I have noticed that even if I make something in it, it (to me) will obviously not work on something like the headers & footers here. This is plain Java and not Javascript (I got into BIG trouble for accidently saying it wrong lol) btw. The big question here for me is if I plan to use what I've been learning in Java what should the next language should I be learning, or next step should I be taking, to use these same effects into something like this for Proboards? I'm semi-familiar with PHP thanks to a different coder and that seems like the best route after I finish Java. Or another way, what language should I be learning other than HTML for more website based interactions?
Just in case anyone wants to discuss the Java Code currently in question. Here it is:
P.S: I do realize there are probably much much easier ways to do this same code with arrays and so on, but I'm still learning, so you'll have to cut me a bit of slack with it lol (Glad to hear any suggestions for it too).
Edit: I am currently working on this code still to improve it.
