A java applet is an applet that is run in javascript. They are often used for "chat" windows and many other real time services. Hope that helps.
Java applets are cut down Java programs designed to run in browsers. They are written in the Java language (like full blown Java applications ) and dont actually use JavaScript - the 'much simplier' built in browser scripting language - instead applets are compiled and are therefore more like Active-X controls. Unilke Active-X controls, Java applets have limited access to your PC operating system and are therefore much safer. They are also platform/browser independent so unlike Active-X they are not tied to Internet Explorer.
