I have to interview a person today, and going through her
resume, in one of the projects, she said she used
Javascript, Java Servlets, xml, xslt and forms / reports...
now how is it possible? according to my knowledge, any
application will have only one front end, either java or
oracle forms....
is there a justification to this?

Perfectly possible.
One application we have has :
- A legacy frontend done in ProC that is still in use for some
- A frontend programmed in C# for the "normal" users
- A frontend done in Java for a mobile device
- A Reports Frontend do do most statistical stuff.
- Some hacked together Access frontends for specific uses like audits
- A Web frontend for external people (suppliers and customers)
Some of it is because of historical reasons, but it makes perfect sense to have a "Desktop Application" frontend for the people who work with the app all the time and some sort of "Web frontend" with reduced functionality for people who just use it now and then.
