If it were faster or slower, I don't think it'll be noticeable.

Though with Java, you would have the capability of running it anywhere.

Which language are web browsers generally written in?

I don't think he meant that browsers can be coded in JavaScript, either, guys.

Or did he mean to replace JavaScript on webpages with Java?

Sorry k00l, don't quite understand :P

I think browsers are made of C or C++, etc.

Java can also be a continent as referring to Java, the largest island of Indonesia.

I want to make a browser with an option of disabling HTML for "Less data usage" and advertise it with "a reduction of 98.66% data usage" for Android and everyone will buy it and be ripped off but they can't sue me because I didn't do anything wrong.

Basically, I'm questioning if it would be more efficient to have a web browser which runs on and reads Java.

If you disable HTML, what exactly would we be looking at?

No, I know that browsers typically run on C++, I was just wondering whether it would be better to use Java to run, and read websites within a browser.

You mean Java as a replacement to HTML? How would that work, would websites just be applets?

Yes, though I have no idea how this would work. Currently, web browsers need to be able to read several different languages in order to run all websites.

Markup is for storage, programming is for manipulation. Manipulating a blank slate to contain content is difficult, but storing data representing content can be easier.

Believe it or not but you can make a website with Lua; rest assured that it wouldn't look the nicest but there are libraries out there that can accomplish such.
