I have a thttpd server set-up which has the following html file. When I give address server-address/file-name.html on a standard web browser errors on the script is logged in error console of browser. I am confused about where the script is run actually? Is it on the client side or are the error messages just passed on to browser by server?
My requirement is to run script on a server to generate dynamic web pages upon client interaction.
<html>
<head>
<title>Entitled Document</title>
<script language="JavaScript" >
Function Java_Scriptfn()
{
alert('Test'
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Script_Check" onclick="Java_Scriptfn()">
</body>
</html>

Reset to default 3That is purely client side code, so it runs on the client.
As far as I can tell, thttpd only supports server side programming via CGI.
JavaScript that is embedded in a HTML site (either inline or load from another file) is always executed client-side (that means in your browser).
If you want it to be executed, server-side, you need something like node.js.
It's client side code; any Javascript files included in an HTML page will run client-side (although they can talk to a server, that's different).
