Overview:

Java is an object-oriented programming language developed by Sun Microsystems similar in its look, feel and elegance to the popular C/C++ programming language. Java incorporates a set of libraries of tested object modules and a virtual machine which permits portability and compatibility across platforms and operating systems.  Java functions allow programmers to add interactivity to their websites through the development of complex server-side applications.  Java support is provided by all current high-level browser applications.  These features, coupled with its almost universal acceptance, make Java one of the most popular web programming languages today.
