To answer this question, you need to understand the concept of server-side programming.
Server-side programming refers to the process of running code on the server to generate dynamic web content. It involves using server-side technologies to process and respond to client requests.
Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) CGI (Common Gateway Interface) - CGI is a standard protocol that allows web servers to execute external programs or scripts to generate dynamic web content. While it is a server-side technology, it is not specifically an applet. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Option B) Server Script - This option is a general term that could refer to any server-side script or program. It is not specific to applets, so this option is incorrect.
Option C) Server-side processor - This option is a general term that could refer to any server-side program or component that processes requests on the server. It is not specific to applets, so this option is incorrect.
Option D) Servlet - A servlet is a Java class that runs on the server-side to handle client requests and generate dynamic web content. Servlets are specifically designed for server-side processing of web applications. This option is correct.
Option E) Java Server Script - This option seems to be a combination of Java and a server-side scripting language. However, there is no specific technology called "Java Server Script". It is likely a mix-up of Java Server Pages (JSP) or JavaServer Faces (JSF) with server-side scripting. This option is incorrect.
The correct answer is D) Servlet. Servlets are applets that run on the server side to handle client requests and generate dynamic web content.
