If your solution relies on absolute accuracy across different languages and machines but you're using floating point I'd say you are setting yourself up for some major heartache and issues. Even with IEEE 754, and supposedly strict rules on rounding I wouldn't trust the fidelity across machines. Do you really need to do the math both on the server in Java and in the browser? Pick one and use that maybe. Or, if you need complete fidelity, use something other than floating point - integer arithmetic or maybe BigDecimal on the server.
