If Selman's book doesn't satisify, does Palmer's ?
Picking from Palmer's book "Essential Java 3D Fast"

The above is a hard coded examples,
ie. it's not reading in VRML, but
presumably the two methods could be merged,
an exercise left to the reader.

| do you have another idea?

Just the one above, I'm not sure about the new
xj3d loaders ( they also read in VRML ).
Just an idea: Would adding unique DEF names
help by adding a unique node assosiated with
each geometry you might be picking ?
