Perhaps, but some additional information: When I point netscape-navigator at
the same HTML file it runs the applet without error or complaint (arguments
and all). I would expect this kind of behaviour from a Sun demo app. (It's
been thoroughly tested, I suppose) I think it points to a problem with
Blackdown's appletviewer implementation.I am running Redhat 5.1 (Manhattan),
and glibc 2.0 and JDK 1.2.pre v2.
Also, the applet's classes had to be recompiled to run properly. (By that I
mean not crash).
