i was wondering what i learn java for, and what i need to learn to do interactive commercial websites. thank you
You can get away with using PHP for cases where you and the customer just want to get the job done fast. Other languages have features that make them more suited for certain applications. Learning Java will not only add another skill to your resume, but knowing more than one language well, even if you stick within the "C-like" family, will help you understand programming better in general.

PHP runs on the server (using SQL to talk to databases). If you want to do anything in the browser that can’t be handled by HTML or CSS, you have to use Javascript (not Java – they’re completely different). Using PHP, if you wanted a menu item to highlight when the mouse is over it, you’d have to send a whole new page whenever the mouse moved – not something your web host would like. It would also make a dead snail look fast.
