Java has explictily been stated as something that probably never will be
supported in Arachne 16-bit for DOS. JavaScript is however planned to be
supported along with more CSS support. Please just accept the fact that
Java and JavaScript has nothing in common (except the first four letters).
I really think it's highly OT to explain it and I've had to explain it to
so many people it has grown tiresome.
Actually a "side-tracked" version of Arachne supported some basic
JavaScript, but Arachne needs to handle it more dynamically than what I
proposed (and started to code).
