| Java | A platform-independent programming language, producedby SunMicrosystems. Java is built as a method to provide services over the WWW.With Java, a Web site provides a Java application (called an applet) which is downloadedby the clientand executed on the client machine. Java is specifically built so that anapplication can be run on any kind of system, so a separate Mac,Windows,Sun,etc. version is not needed. Java also has some security features built in, tomake it more difficult for destructive applets to be written. Java is based on asubset of the Cprogramming language. |
| JavaScript | JavaScript (in spite of its name) has nothing whatsoever to do with Java. JavaScript is an interpreted language built into a browser to provide a relatively simple means of adding interactivity to web pages. It is only supported on a few different browsers, and tends not to work exactly the same on different versions. Thus its use on the Internet is somewhat restricted to fairly simple programs. On intranets where there are usually fewer browser versions in use, JavaScript has been used to implement much more complex and impressive programs. |
