Funny thing ...
the dolphin.wrl file you are trying to animate came from my site ...
http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/shout3d/models/dolphin.wrl http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/shout3d/models/ http://www.frontiernet.net/~imaging/dolphin_swim.jpg
and it will animate with Shout3d ( without Java3d ) or with the Sun VRML Loaders, and probably the 'new' Yumetech loaders too ...
but that file is compressed with "zip" or "gzip" programs and should be decompressed first for it to work with some of the VRML Loaders.
VRML files are clear ( simple ) text files.
On my linux system I decompressed it by typing:
$ mv dolphin.wrl dolph.wrl.gz $ gunzip dolphin.wrl.gz $ java Vrml97Player dolphin.wrl
The Sun VRML Loaders I have run _ both _ as applets in a browser and as applications.

Hi, I am very appreciated for your help. My program is designed to use VRML Loader and load all the data from VRML file, including animation data. But the program is an application, not an applet.
Anyway, if you can run the attachment file, please let me know.

Greetings ...
I have used the Sun VRML Loaders to animate VRML and do the animation in a web browser without any additional installations ( as the "new" Yumetech VRML / xj3d loaders do ).
Could you send me the VRML file you are trying to animate or the URL of it if it is on the web ?
I'll let you know if it works with my programs and we can go from there.
Justin Couch of Yumetech.com is trying to 'replace' the Sun VRML loaders with their own and they are not honest about the Sun VRML loaders.

Hi, all I have succeeded in using sun's vrmlLoader to read wrl file, but it can not parse the file's animation part. Now I want to use xj3d toolkit to solve this problem and I visited the site http://www.web3d.org/source/source/xj3d.html, but the content of this site is too simple! I will very appreciated if anyone can give me an example code of using xj3d to fetch the wrl file's animation part or send me some documents about this side!
Best regards
