fuss was raised during the beta program such backward compatibility was added so
that an applet signed using Netscape signing for Netscape 4.x would run under
Netscape 6. I can't comment on Java to JavaScript communication since we do not
use it, but don't give up on the ability to do basic signing. We use a Thawte
multipurpose certificate and it works fine:
