What is Perl script? 

Is Perl script as unrelated to Perl as JavaScript is to Java?

I'm really 1/2 serious about the question, and 1/2 poking fun. Is it a
confused job req up or another technology (making *me* the one that's
confused)? 

I'd heard about a Perl equivalent of JavaScript that didn't catch on.
Is this it? If not, what was that browser-embedded Perl thing called,
and how's it doing?
