Allessandro, Sure... HTMLConverter *would* be dead if they'd make Netscape 4.7x handle just the APPLET tag too. I've tried IE & Netscape 6 (several versions of each) as well as Mozilla & Opera. For my own personal preference Netscape 4.7x is far better than any of the other browser options. Unfortunately it still has one huge drawback (poor support of Java Plug-ins).
