Yes, but neither Netscape nor IE (which, afaik, doesn't run on FreeBSD) is a correct JDK 1.1, so I prefer to test my own stuff in appletviewer ...

Yea, so I do my own implementation of AppletContext (it is an interface), and put this stuff in showDocument() ... But how do I get the appletviewer to return my implementation of AppletContext to the Applet? And what do I do with all the other methods? Inherit the implementation thats used now? One way to get booth this questions in one shot would be to edit the 'default' implementation ... Where do I find that? The class seems to be sun.applet.AppletViewer, but there is no such file in src.zip in the distribution. It seems like this is not in the part sun thinks an end-user may fiddle with ... Is there a legal way to do this? // Rasmus -- kaj@cityonline.se --------------- Rasmus Kaj - http://www.e.kth.se/~kaj/ \ CityOnLine IB Production AB - http://www.CityOnLine.se/ \------------- Im sorry if the correct way of doing things offends you To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
