This is the chapter from the 1997 book
Java-ActiveX is out of fashion.

There are some commercial offerings:

and some open source solutions:

I would look for alternatives.

Java-JavaScript is still supported !
It has to be ActiveX / interpreted language, that is the binding constraint.
Where does Java come into the picture ?

(neither ActiveX controls nor Java is interpreted)

How does Java run on WebPages if it is not interpreted?

JSP (Java Server Pages) is triple compiled on the server
(jspc compiles from JSP to Java, javac compiles from Java
to Java byte code, JVM JIT compiles from Java byte code
to native).

Java applets is compiled from Java to Java byte code
by the developer somewhere and compiled from Java byte
code to native by the JIT compiler in the JVM used
by the browser.

Well if you use a JVM from mid 1990's it may actually
interpret, but ...

JavaScript is interpreted, but has nothing to do with
Java.
