- Embeded XML
- Better standard library than classic JavaScript
- Implicit Conversion

Not truly matching your requirements, but answering your initial question “Is there any Scala like alternative to JavaScript? “:
If you do not like Ruby/Python/Coffescript, you should perhaps have a look at the technology preview of google’s new language Dart:

Looks very java-ish on a first glance, but has many niceties that make it feel scalastic too.
(But do not make the mistake to approach it as another Scala. Only Scala is Scala!)
