| The matter is that version of Java VM in Navigator is slightly different
| ;-) from yores and is incompatible for Swing-applet running at all. You
| may update Navigator's VM for newest. Sun has a product named Java
| Plug-in. It could be found at
| http://java.sun.com:80/products/plugin/index.html.
| I have tried it under Win32 and it was working properly. But the major
| problem in Linux case is that there aren't ports of Java Plug-in
| available :-(
There *IS* a plug-in port available for Linux. I've got one somewhere.
Don't remember where I got it from and I didn't find the time to give
it a try. I think it even has the name beta-version: Activator...
I did try the windows version though, and that one worked once pretty good.
Nowadays, I can't use the plug-in anymore, since upgrading/uninstalling
and installing of various versions of this product was too much for the
beautifull windows registry 8-(
Cheers, Addy.
