What is "a Java"  There is only one Java programming language, and Perl is a
different language. If you mean a Java Applet, then no, Perl doesn't have any
extensions for working inside a browser.  You can post to a Perl-based
application from a Java Applet, though.  You can also use JavaScript [a third
language, with no relationship to the other two] to handle some client side
chores.

Perl works fine as a server side programming language.  It is very well suited
to the middle [business logic] tier of a three-tier system.  The CGI module
makes it very easy to receive data or requests from Web clients, and the DBI
module provides facilities for connecting with the database server.  Your Perl
programs can then focus on what needs to be done between requestor and database.

Well, I hope that helps.  I am sort of guessing on what it is you want, though.
