<<well I have to disagree with you on the macs and

Doug was just saying that he hadn't USED and applet
in Mac NS, not that it couldn't be done.
<<when complaining about mac compatability. I believe that we
need to start talking about specific browsers.
What about specific OS's. Mac OS X has just been released (Europe), which
contains a built in version of IE, which might be different than the current IE
used on Mac.
On a side-note, apparently shops were opening
at midnight, and people cueing for hours to get hold of the new Mac OS X, which
doesn't even support DVD drives or CD burners yet, they must be
desperate!

well I have to disagree with you on the macs and applets.
from what ramon and I were playing with, all seemed fine when talking to a
java applet using js in ns4.xx on a mac.
the only does not work in IE on the mac is because MS haven't bother
implementing it. they admit as much.
when complaining about mac compatability. I believe that we need to
start talking about specific browsers. It would make no sense if I just
posted say "XXX doesn't work in windows".

There is NO applet

works..so I can just detect

(was: to all who helped) Myself and Romon Buckland spent a few
hours working on the mac problems and found that all the applet stuff
works in NS. It is only IE that has a problem.
See the following page for more details of how MS has stopped short of
making a real browser for the mac:

I just want to thank all of you for your
help. I think I know why it
does not work in Mac IE,you see, the data for the tree is loaded in
advance in a separate frame,And the tree applet simply gets the data
from the data applet in the other frame.. I'm guessing that cross-frame communication in
Java is incomplete or non-existent in MAC IE.. bummer.. Just a question.. the NON-Java version that loads in NS, did
this work on the MAC? If so
I can just detect macs and give them the JS based tree (yes we have two
trees) Doug --
