first CD into your folder where the javaProgram.class is:

>$ cd ~/home/danny-desktop/java/javaprograms/

You can also drag the file icon into the Console to get your path, but for cd you need to take off the last part

>$ cd ~/home/danny-desktop/java/javaprograms/myApp.class
(take off the myApp.class, then hit return)

then you would:
>$ java myApp
NO file extension

Your env variable should have for CLASSPATH ./

the ./ tells the java JRE to look inside the focused folder first for any class files. If you have other folders with class files you put them in also with a semi-colon to separate the paths
./;home/danny-desktop/java/jdk6.1.1/bin;

You can also java (and the path to ) every time, but I think doing cd is better.

Because you can compile, I would say your PATH variable -- that finds the JRE -- is OK.
