According to the “Normalized Comparison” and “Normalized Discussion Site Results” on LangPop, the Internet’s largest programming language survey, Java is #2 on those two categories, C holds the #1 spot both, C# holds the #6 on “Normalized Comparison” and #7 on “Normalized Discussion Site Results”.
In other words, Java is the second most used programming language in existence. A language that is 37 years old and 23 years older than Java beats it and is the only one to beat it. C# does not even come close.

Javascript is used only with HTML, so it should say html/javascript. Same thing with PHP.
The language C: which one, gcc or Visual C/C++ or Intel C?
If programmers are writing web applications or Windows applications, clearly they are not using C.

I didn't have this felling after reading the article.

Actually not. Javascript is not tied to HTML, nor is PHP.
But the main question is, who ever talked about Javascript ??? Are we still talking about the same article ?

The blog is using the results of http://langpop.com/ as href in the second paragraph. The blog draws conclusions from (IMHO) shaky statistics.
