The cosmo jar provides increased interaction with wrl files when they are displayed with the Cosmo player. Of course, all vrml interaction in web browsers are pretty limited because there just hasn't been much development on this front in years.

The netscape jar files add the code for better interaction between the java applets and Netscape. What exactly I don't know since I haven't dug into it but there is some code that needs some real updating in here. To make JavaDX usable, I've had to compile with the netscape jar and then only use Netscape as a viewer. It would sure be nice if I had some time and money to work on this feature. I think with enough updates, this could be a really nifty way to use DX.

     Finally decided I should at least fire up JavaDX so I'd know what it
could do.  Does any of the following explain why Edit->Java->Save As Web Page
would be greyed out?

     What do the netscape and cosmo jar files provide BTW?
