Thanks for the thorough explanation. I will save this message in hopes of getting things to work in the near future. I don't know what it is about the education world that makes the planners and doers so in love with problematic technology. I am a tech lover, myself, but there is one over-arching consideration with designing a system. Will it work well for all comers? The more javascript and client-side technology one sticks in to the mix, the more one is certain that you will break something for somebody and the idea here is to communicate and educate and that seems to be secondary these days to making a pretty and slick-looking GUI. Okay. I'll stop right there.
Many thanks again. I just want it to work so I will stop being nagged as to whether I have completed the assignment. Martin McCormick Esther writes: > Apple has handed Java support back to Oracle.
