• Local animations and control of images and audio

• Set of GUI components used for interactivity

• Local (client-side) processing of input

Detailed Description:

"We can improve the dialog that users work with. Java's GUI capability, its graphical user interface, allows you to provide an interactive experience that has dialog and stateful interactions. Today's web pages do not provide this level of interaction; they only allow you to look at it, put up another page, or put up a form, type into that form, and the data returns to the server for processing. Now we can add buttons, dialogs, frames, and other graphical user interfaces with Java. And finally, as we have said earlier, the local, or client-side, processing that Java enables is beneficial because it offloads the server. Web pages containing Java programs are considered "Java-powered" pages."
