The Main difference between application server and web sever is..

Application server will expose the business methods to the client. Means the client can call the business methods from the remote system. The client can be protocol independent.

But webserver will not expose any business methods to the client. In this case the client can just make a request to the particular web appliation. The web serve will sever to the client by invoking some methods.

web server and application server are two different pieces of software.The primary function of webserver is to send web pages to the browser, whereas an applicationserver prepares the material for the web server such as retrieving data from the database,applying bussiness rule , checking security clearances are all done by an application server.
