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
