JavaScript is not Java! In order to get JavaScript to work you need to go into the properties windows of whatever browser you are using and enable it.

For Mozilla Firebird this is in Tools->Options then click on Web Content in the side bar. There you will see two check boxes, one to enable Java and one to enable JavaScript.

For IE 5.x+ click on Tools->Internet Options then on the Security tab. From here click on the Custom Level button and in the window that pops up you will need to scroll till you come to almost the end of the list, this will be where the scripting options will be. For Highest Security you can disable, medium security you can have it prompt you for whether or not you want to run scripting, and for low security you can allow IE to run JavaScript (and other types of scripts) wherever and whenever it comes across them.

In Opera go to Tools (for Opera 7.5x) or File (for Opera 7.2x)->Quick Preferences and make sure "Enable Javascript" is checked.
