1 Well there is the battles between Sun Netscape and Microsoft which makes Java on the client less robust than Java on the server
2 However Java allows to build totally general users interfaces and there appear to be no rules and nothing equivalent to style sheets in HTML/XML.

4 On the other JavaScript and dynamic HTML can do many things that you might have thought one needed Java for
5 General Java visual interfaces need languages such as UML to describe interface object model?
