Is it possible to use your own javascript engine in place of the browser’s engine?

We have a cloud based JAVA app and uses a lot of javascript and ajax.

I don’t know a ton about Java (just enough to get by), I’m an ajax programmer.

Mozilla has a javascript engine called rhino. Is that engine only for running javascript inside a native java app or can you use it in a java web app and use the rhino engine instead of the browser’s engine?

Maybe I misunderstand the point of Rhino?

The reason I would like this is obviously because Internet Explorer is way too slow. I have been optimizing my scripts like crazy and IE is still unacceptable.

    You could interface with Node.js which runs its own instance of V8, Google’s Javascript engine. All of the Javascript magic would be run on the server side. It’s wicked fast too.
