They are absolutely related - concepts, organization and coding style in each are very similar... just their purpose is a bit different.

They are
not related. JavaScript is a scripting language created by Netscape. Java is a
set of technologies (including the Java programming language) created by Sun Microsystems. It is unfortunate that their names are similar.
Because the Java programming language and JavaScript share similarities in some concepts and syntax, it does not mean they are related. When someone substitutes the word 'Java' for 'JavaScript', it is quite likely that person does not know the difference between the two. In that case, it should be pointed out that JavaScript is not the same as Java, which is what I posted.
