Java is not javascript.
Also javascript is loose terminology, it really only applies to earlier
Netscape browsers, but generalises to a combination of Ecmascript and
the HTML document object model (DOM), plus a browser object model.
Lynx's internal data structures are nothing like even the original HTML
document object model, and that has been greatly changed/extended in the
creation of HTML5.
Implementing the DOM would require radical restructuring of Lynx. The
best that one can really hope for is some of the more commonly used
browser object model operations (although many of those relate to
windowing) and the recognition of certain common idioms without any
corresponding deep structure.
