TheFreeSite.com: Java and JavaScript Freebies
If you're new to Web authoring, you're probably wondering "What is the deal with Java?" and "What can it do for me?" Well, Java (and its cousin, JavaScript) are programming languages that allow small programs (or applets) to run on your computer when you launch a Web site. If you've seen a page that featured some cool effect, like scrolling text, or a pop-up window, odds are you're looking at a Java applet in action.
If you'd like to include such cool features on your site you have two choices. You may either learn how to write Java programs yourself (a tough task) or you can go to any one of the various sites on the Web that offer free Java programs. Below is a roundup of many of the best Java and JavaScript repositories on the Web. Many offer free Java applets, or "copy & paste" JavaScript, with instructions for including them on your site. Others offer tutorials for learning the languages.
Please send us E-mail if you're aware of any such free Java/JavaScript sites that we haven't listed below or if you find a dead link.

Pulldown Menu
This popular, free JavaScript makes it easy for you to install a handy pull-down menu on your site, with a minimum of fuss. Includes handy instructions for installation.

JunkMachine
This popular free service allows you to easily create your own cool, eye-catching Java applets for your Web site. No knowledge of Java programming is required. The JunkMachine will generate HTML code that you can simply cut and paste onto your site. You can either use this applet at this site or download the necessary .class files and run the applet locally (which they recommend, due to the high traffic at this site). (This applet was formerly known as the JavaMachine, but had to undergo a name change for trademark reasons).
