A similar problem here. A friend who (was) running Linux likes to connect to the local library to check out the availability of books. The web page uses a java program to run . She told me that it "wouldn't work in Linux". So I tried it. Nope, didn't work. I used Opera, Mozilla, and Konqy. Then I fired up windows and tried Netscape and Opera. Nope. The only thing that would work was Internet Explorer. I checked the web pages and Front Page was being used as the web package. The error I got from some of the failures was "invalid byte code". Hmmm I sez to myself. Could MS be planting a bogus bit of code in their java created by Front Page to 'kill' all other browsers? Naw, they wouldn't do that, would they??
