Jupiter doesn't produce light because it is not hot enough. It does, like the other planets and moons, reflect the Sun's light, and at this moment, (October 2011) it is the brightest object in the night sky after the Moon, and was easily seen even with the full moon in the sky.
It is a gas giant, and the density at the centre is possibly enough to initiate fusion, but hasn't. Perhaps its core is deficient in heavy material?
Jupiter and Saturn enjoy an harmonic dance with each other. Look up year lengths.

When light comes from the sun does it shine straight on Jupiter and its moons or does it shine on Jupiter then from there the light reflects to Jupiter's moons?
It shines directly on both Jupiter and its moons. There is no reason it shouldn't, as, other than periodic eclipses from Jupiter, nothing blocks the sunlight from reaching those moons. The moons do get some reflected light from Jupiter as well, just as Earth gets some light from our moon.
