Reilly-san, > I'm a little disappointed that it didn't actually solve the > problem that I wanted solved: Java in a native web browser. Applets do work in Konqueror (KDE) on FreeBSD with the native JDK. The only problem is that LiveScript (JavaScript) control over an applet doesn't work in Konqueror and some applets appear outside of the browser frame. > Can the j2ee sdk (jdk13) be used to run applets, even in > stand-alone mode? I want to do GUIs, rather than server-side > database applications. I would recommend creating an application (as opposed to applet) and deploying with WebStart. That works fine on Netscape 4.7x, Mozilla, and Konqueror (although I recall having to tweak some things to get it to find the native JRE). You get the advantages of an application (which could talk to a web service if you so chose) with the deployability of an applet. -- Michael Westbay Work: Beacon-IT http://www.beacon-it.co.jp/ Home: http://www.seaple.icc.ne.jp/~westbay Commentary: http://www.japanesebaseball.com/forum/ Due to severe bugs in Microsoft Outlook, Outlook users may no be able to read beyond this point... begin Your mail client is begin-bug free. ;-) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the messagehelp
