 Engines are complicated. But the basics are easy.
 
-1. The script is written and distributed as a plain text (can be compressed/optimized by so-called "javascript minifiers").
-2. The engine (embedded if it's a browser) reads the script ("parses") and converts ("compiles") it to the machine language.

 - JavaScript can easily communicate over the net to the server where the current page came from. But its ability to receive data from other sites/domains is crippled. Though possible, it requires explicit agreement (expressed in HTTP headers) from the remote side. Once again, that's safety limitations.
