JDK 1.1.8 and 1.1.7 runs swing just fine. You can get swing from Sun here: http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/ Make sure you get the 1.1.1 version which will run on a 1.1 JDK. My Netscape 4.5 runs swing applets without any (visible) problem. To test if your netscape will run it, you can go here: http://www.aparima.com/quote/applet_demo.html Thanks, Sean To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
