Installing client-side programs in your server is relatively easy. There are two types of client-side programs: Java applets and JavaScript programs.
Client-side Java applets are executable files identified in an HTML document, retrieved from the server, and executed on the client. The applets can reside anywhere under your server's primary document root.
Client-side JavaScript programs are created by lines of JavaScript code embedded in HTML files. The HTML files travel from the server to the client. Once the files reach the client, the Web browser interprets the JavaScript code and performs the specified actions.
With LiveConnect you can connect server-side Java and JavaScript applications or client-side Java and JavaScript applications. For more information on LiveConnect, on embedding JavaScript in HTML, and on using client-side JavaScript with other programs, see the Novell Developer Kit Web site.
