Dear All,
I have a requirement where I need to invoke Javascript methods from a Java file located in the same machine. Are there any possible solutions for this?

Regards,
Alok

You could use the Java Scripting engine to invoke the JavaScript.

Thanks to you both. You both refer to the same article.
The article definitely helps, but we are using Java 5 and not Java 6

In that case BSF is for you. Or you can use the Rhino JavaScript engine directly.
