This is about executing java3d applets in
http://www.mindspring.com/~ldorman/VRA,
specifically, models LABATTS and MELT.  The applet is derived from Doug
Gehringer's program VolRend, which I converted into an applet.  Below
are the results using netscapes 4 and 6 and ie browsers under WIN98 and
Solaris8.  The WIN98 tests use SDK1.3.0 J3d1.2 and the Solaris8 tests
use SDK1.3beta-refresh.

NC4.75,WIN98SE: Stable under multiple executions.

MSIE5.5,WIN98SE:  Stable under multiple executions.

NS6pr2,WIN98SE: Runs, but hangs after "BACK" command.

NC4.7Solaris8: Runs but VM dies after "BACK" command.

What I have learned recently:
HTMLConverter is intolerant of errors in html, so it is helpful to run
the html validator at www.w3c.org.  It would be helpful to know what
Document Type Definition (DTD) the HTMLConverter was written to.

The access-violation-raising attempted read of os.version did not come
from the Java code, but from the javascript generated by the HTMLConverter.

Thanks to J�rg Plewe, Carl Smotrisz, Fred Klingener and Raffi Kasparian,
some of whom may or may not be browser-challenged IE users.
