I would like to know what does .do webpages stand for ( as .php stands for PHP pages with PHP Scripting) and what is the scripting language behind it.

According to WikiPedia, .do is:

a pseudo file extension representing an Apache Struts action. It does not map to an actual file extension, although it appears that way.

However, you can't really say anything about the technology behind based solely on the "extension", i.e., the server can be configured to use .do for PHP files etc. This can be done in order to secure backwards compatibility or whatever.
