in thread Embedding WebPerl Code Demos into Other Pages
it's a very long time since I used Java applets, so I'm not sure about that side...
I see some similarities but also advantages.
- you only need to have JS activated in the browser, no external add-ons/plug-ins necessary
- once the Perl interpreter is downloaded and in the cache you won't have much start-up lack when loading new code.*
- you can easily reuse JS libs and naturally interact with the DOM, no alien Java panel/interface.
due to JIT compiling will JS still be much faster, but you'll be able to reuse CPAN modules inside the browser.
