Justin,

It's a regular problem I've seen over and over - applets tend to want
whichever version of HTMLConverter was used to create the webpage - even
if it is a lower version than what the person has installed.

I still feel that "distribution" is the WORST problem of Java.  It's a
nightmare to support anything other than a closed environment.  Java is
fine for internal use in a customer where I can update and control which
version of Java is installed on every PC, but for mass distribution?
Scary!!!
