Thank you Charles, thank you Robin
My interest is in creating dashboards for real-time systems where 
transactions use byte arrays; not strings.
Javascript is nice if you want to do things with text but it does not 
support logical operators (and, or, xor, shift left, shift right) or 
byte arrays.  Java does.
After doing some further reading, I learned that if I want cross-browser 
compatibility (and I do)  I'm stuck with Javascript and Ajax
and will use a simple workaround.
