I'd just like to offer an enormous THANK-YOU to the Java team. My
Mozilla is now happily doing Java things!
Well, mostly. This site has a java-based navigation gizmo on the
left-hand side, and the applet crashes if it is the first thing
run in the session:
http://www.duntech.com.au/images/all.html
However if I go and run
file:////usr/local/jdk1.3.1/demo/applets/Animator/example1.html
which seems to work fine, then re-loading the previous page
results in the navigation applet working. Maybe there's something
dumb going on in that applet, but I thought that I should mention
the problem.
I haven't figured out how to make the plugin work with galeon yet,
either. Maybe I need to compile it "WITH_FULL_MOZILLA", rather
than the default embedded version?
Still, from my perspective, this last week has been a HUGE step
forward.
Yay! Thanks!
Just in case it helps, the Java console stack trace for the
failure mentioned above looks like:
