I encountered a similar problem before. First you should do is to ensure that your Java is installed correctly. Run the following on the command line java -version If your Java is working correctly, you can take a look at http://www.rojakcoder.com/wordpress/2008/01/03/trouble-with-java-applets-with-firefox-on-opensuse/ I share my experience (struggle) with Java before. Maybe you can get some insight from there? Cheers, How -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
