You'd need a whole other aplication to handle it. In the same way that Apache uses PHP.exe to parse PHP.

Now why on earth don't you use a language that was designed to run on a server?

Why not just learn another language that is more universal? I am thinking Java. That way you can write executable applications that you might potentially want to run on the server backend and you would be able to use jsp for server side scripting, and you could then write applets too. Javascript isn't that great... it is not going to do much for you, it isn't the most efficient thing in the world server side.

You could also look into J# or JScript in a .NET or ASP environment, respectively.

I definately recommend you broaden your horizons with another language, though.

If your familiar with Javascript then PHP has a pretty similar syntax and does more than javascript could.

Read the post here by Mstr.Bob, it answers your server-side javascript question. Surpisingly ss-j exists!
