This test checks if your browser's Javascript is able to call methods of
a Java applet. Inside the <APPLET> tag of the applet shown below, a
name is defined using the name="applet" attribute.
Then the browser's Javascript should be able to call methods of the applet by
using applet.method(). Use the "test JS" button
to test if your browser supports Javascript at all, indicated by the appearance
of an alert-box reading "JS is supported!".
