Dashboard applets are JavaScript based NOT Java based. I just looked at the contents of the Weather applet and it is indeed htmpl + javascript. This is not to say you're having isues with Java, but using the Weather Dashboard applet is not a way of testing it. Look at the Weather widget's contents, it's an HTML file and a bunch of javascript source ( .js ) plus a couple plists. Possibly weird DNS issues? To test Java use somethng you know is Java based and not network based, like ImageJ: <http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/> -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
