Hi John, I use Netscape 4.76 on Solaris all the time, and in Edit-Preferences on the 'Advanced' tab there is a checkbox for 'enable Java' underwhich there is another for 'enable Java Plugin.' It's my understanding (and I could be wrong) that this is specifically for funneling all Java (including the APPLET tag) to the Java Plugin. I know all the applets I see now run in the plugin (you can tell by how they load.) I suppose it's possible that the applet developers wrote the right HTML to do that if possible to, but I think it's just netscape forcing it. I just checked on Win2K, and Netscape 4.79 has it there also. -Kyle -- _ -------------------------------ooO( )Ooo------------------------------- Kyle J.
