What?!
Web browsers are used _more and more_ as the "access point" for applications
that are hosted elsewhere (or even multiple elsewheres). And many (most)
have some code that is executed at the client (like all JavaScript/Jscript.)
PHP applications come to mind,including bloggers and other kinds of shared
applications, with a wide mix of non-Java components. In fact, this is the
fastest growing web application building environment mix.
