I'm going to work on a website with a few of my friends, but I don't really have much experience with JavaScript, HTML, or CSS.
I looked at GWT and thought it'd be good for me since my best language is Java.
Most of the friends I'm working with, however, are familiar with web development in JavaScript and will likely use it on the project.
Is it possible for me to GWT to contribute and for them to use JavaScript on the same project?
Not easily. GWT generates Javascript blocks that are intended to be self-contained, and they don't readily interoperate with other Javascript libraries, even something as ubiquitous as jQuery. In my experience, with the exception of analytics and other aspect-type scripts, you're better off picking one approach or the other and using it for everything.

I have to create a user interface in Java, I asked in another forum for some recommendations and somebody answered me, at that moment, few people write GUI application in JAVA, its most used .NET, could somebody help me?.
Thanks

The way with java gui is to use javaFx. For that you'll need java 8 (no other lib is needed). This is easier to use as Swing or AWT before. Also its fancier by default.
Although its somehow not new to the community(2 years), there can be some pitfalls you will run into. By now i don't see a better solution. If you need more native "look and feel" you can use the platform dependent swt which is somehow old, proofed but harder to use.

I am trying to scrape data from two websites. I want to build a generic web parser to scrape those website. I need a generic parser because i might need to parse additional websites in the future. I want to parse the websites using java and store specific data in MySQL. What are the steps I should take? Can anyone guide me in this?
I've done this same thing for scraping the web using java and building a parser is an absolute nightmare, there are so many more things to consider that you realize at the start.
Use jSoup. It is sooo easy, and leaves you time to enjoy the finer things in life.

I should clarify my question here, I want to practice my programming skills and I want to develop a simple diagram modeling tool, something where I can move objects with the mouse, drag and drop, but I have no idea where to look to learn this kind of things in Java.
I hope my question is clear, thank you.
Are you looking at a desktop application or a web based application?
For a desktop based application, you should start looking a swing or javafx to get started with the basic ideas and the move along.
For web application, it is a bit more complicated for a beginner. I suggest you to start with spring examples and then implement the front end with the help of some javascript library. Like JQuery, Dojo and Draw2D etc.

I have a Java application that has a GUI for user interactions.
The GUI is implemented with SWT.
Now I want to make some Functional Tests for the application. As whitebox as possible.
I have been trying some frameworks like Maveryx, and SWTbot. But Maveryx is just a pain to configure and it didn't seem to integrate very well with a CI server. SWTBot I simply wasn't able to get it to find all the necessary classes after installing it on eclipse.
I would like to know what are other people using to test their Java GUI applications. And if possible to point me towards some tutorials about that frameworks.
Ours is awt/swing/java2d application . We use jemmy for it. According to the documentation it works with SWT as well. Please give it a try.
If you are willing to pay some money, Rational Functional Tester (very expensive) or Squish could be considered. Both are very good products, squish is significantly cheaper (or it used to be)

we are using the java 6 scripting engine in our product, and now we are thinking on adding some debugging abilities.
my question is:
is it possible? does the java 6 scripting engine has the same capabilities like rhino as far as debugging.
some documentation about how to start doing it, some code samples any information would be great since i could not find anything on the web.
thanks
I'd start by looking at how the open source Firebug (www.getfirebug.com) tool is implemented, unless you're completely wedded to the idea of a "pure" sand-boxed Rhino environment (and even then Firebug could probably teach you a few things).
