Google themselves are the ones who say they have client APIs for the

I choose to believe Google on this one.
That is the web service/SOA/<insert buzzword> API.
So?
I will assume that the original poster is interested in
the web application.
You can assume whatever you like. The OP had asked if Google Docs was an
online Java EE application. He didn't specify "web application" and he didn't
specify the browser interface. Answering that question, the best I was able
to discover was that it seems to be a Java application, and it allows client
applications to be Java or C#, and provided the links I found as evidence.
That's available information that pertains to the OP's question as asked,
without the need to make specious assumptions.
Then you claimed that the only interface to Google Docs was Javascript. One
of the links I provided earlier led to Google's own link confirming that there
are other ways to access it. Now you want to add that only a "web
application" interface is relevant. OK, I don't know how you conclude that,
but that's fine. It doesn't impinge on the OP's question as asked, though.
Hopefully the information gathered so far:
- Google Docs is apparently written in Java, making it likely that
- Google Docs is a Java EE application as the OP said he wanted to know.
- There is a web application to use Google Docs, which uses Javascript.
- There is a web-service interface to Google Docs, a very Java EE-ish way to
do things, thus also relevant to the OP's question, as asked.
will be useful to the OP, and others.
