*twitches*

I know its not your fault -- it was /stupid/ of them to name them
similarly. Java and JavaScript are programming languages and that's
where the similarity ends. In fact, I don't think there's even a working
JavaScript interpreter writen in Java.

You have to download the Java JRE and install it to run _applets_ that
run in web pages and usually have a user interface. JavaScript is
automatically included with Mozilla and should _always_ work.

What's the problem page? Maybe I can help.
