Hey all, I'm not sure if this would require JavaScript or something
else.
It probably would be better in another language.
I want to log into my gMail account with this little program, and then
be able to browse links which can be manually added, and then download
the files from those links.
Javascript, at least running in a browser, are prevented from affecting
pages from another server by the security model of the browser. That
makes scripting foreign pages hard.
Is this possible to accomplish with Java?
Probably, but Java and Javascript are two different languages with
essentially nothing more in common than the four letters.
If so, can you please make one for me, or teach me the basics of making
something like this?
It sounds like you want a real program. To make that, you need to be a
programmer (or a very quick learner). It's not trivial, which is also
why you probably won't be able to find anybody doing it for free
(and you will at least have to explain what it should do in more detail).
If it isn't possible with Java, which programming language can make
something like this?
*Languages* are pretty much equivalent in computational power. Their
libraries and runtime environments might make some things easier, or
(as Javascript in a browser environment) some things impossible.
Any generic programming language will be able to do what you need
(pretty much independently of what you need, it's just a question of
how hard it will be).
