Java and Javascript are two different things.
Java, developed under the Sun Microsystems brand, is a full-fledged
object-oriented programming language. It can be used to create standalone
applications and a special type of mini application, called an applet.
Applets are downloaded as separate files to your browser alongside an HTML
document, and provide an infinite variety of added functionality to the Web
site you are visiting. The displayed results of applets can appear to be
embedded in an HTML page (e.g., the scrolling banner message that is so
common on Java-enhanced sites), but the Java code arrives as a separate
file.
JavaScript, developed by Netscape, is a smaller language that does not
create applets or standalone applications. In its most common form today,
JavaScript resides inside HTML documents, and can provide levels of
interactivity far beyond typically flat HTML pages -- without the need for
server-based CGI (Common Gateway Interface) programs.
