Applet Information


The applet runs within several browsers:

1.  Netscape 7.x for Linux.
    Requires Java plug-in v1.5 or 1.6.  It can be downloaded from http://www.java.com/en.  Click on Free Download.
    Go to Help-->About Plug-ins to see if the right Java plug-in is installed.  You can also check Tools-->Web Development-->Java Console.
    The Java Console window should come up and the first line should say that it is Plug-in version 1.4.

2.  Internet Explorer on Windows XP
    Requires Java plug-in v1.5 or 1.6.  It can be downloaded from http://www.java.com/en.  Click on Free Download.

    Run Sun's Java in Internet Explorer.  From the menubar, go to
        Tools->Internet Options... and click on Advanced.  
        Scroll down to Java (Sun).
        Check Use Java 2.
        Check Java console enabled.
        Restart Internet Explorer.

    The Sun Java console window should pop up and the first line of text should say that it is Plug-in version 1.5 or 1.6.


3.  Konquerer

4.  Mozilla 1.6a for Linux:
    Install java runtime environment for java 1.5 or 1.6.

    Install mozilla 1.6

cd to the mozilla/plugins directory.
ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.5/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji .
            This must be a symbolic link. Anything else crashes mozilla.

            run mozilla:
	cd ..
./mozilla

    mozilla requires libgcc3.2.2 to load the plug-in.  Earlier versions of libgcc give a misleading error message of file not found even though
it is really there.

5.  Safari 1.2.2 on Mac OS X 10.3.4
    Requires Java plug-in 1.5, java for cocoa.
