Done

<< i'm sure, javafx is being developed, but it's also released to the public already.
spring, and fall
The world does not consist of America only, - spring may be early in the year or late in the year depending on where you live. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.73.125.183 (talk) 06:56, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

JavaFX Script merge JavaFX Article
![]() | It has been suggested that JavaFX Script be merged into this page. (Discuss) Proposed since April 2009. |
JavaFX is NOT a scripting language:
“ | Even though it is called JavaFX Script, JavaFX is NOT a scripting language (in the dynamic sense). JavaFX code gets compiled to Java bytecode at design time. So, JavaFX is similar to Flex (except for the XML-UI part). Note that JavaFX started as a scripting language in Sun Labs, but quickly became a compiled language (probably for performance reasons). Sun keeps using the term “JavaFX Script” to distinguish the language from the JavaFX brand and to avoid using the word “language,” which would make it too obvious that JavaFX is another language all together. | ” |
- JavaFX is the platform, and JavaFX Script is the language. At the time of writing, the latter is open source, while the former is not. In the quote, Larry is referring to two things: (1) JavaFX Script is not interpreted, like most scripting languages, and (2) it suffers from the Frankenstein phenomenon (people popularly refer to the monster as "Frankenstein", but that's not the monster's actual name). Just because some use the shorthand "JavaFX" in reference to "JavaFX Script", does not mean the articles should be merged (any more than the ActionScript article should be merged into Flash/Flex).

- The articles should not be merged, as both subjects differ. Sae1962 (talk) 14:00, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
Bizarre behavior
For some reason when I visit this Wikipedia page in particular the style sheet is different from the rest of Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.6.155.52 (talk) 03:20, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
Not an article, but advertisement
“Technical highlights”?? SERIOUSLY?? Reads like a advertisement, rather than a article! This desperately needs fixing!
