Have you checked the Advanced Search options?

   Linkname: Advanced Google Search Operators
        URL: http://www.google.com/help/operators.html

This used to have a list of operators that enabled searching on
specific parts of the content.  Java script was not among them in my
ancient (2001) archive of the page, but that may be different now.

Interesting problem.  If the google web crawlers don't look at the
Java, it's not in their database, and no advanced search operators can
change that.

This may make a case for using other than google.
