[JAWS-Users] Should I have JAVA on my computer?
Good Morning Everyone, Could someone please tell me what kind of program JAVA is and what it does? Also, could you tell me if it is something I should have on my computer and where I can find it? I am running 2002 XP Home, 2002 Office Home, and whatever the hell the latest version of JAWS 9 is. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for the help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Should I have JAVA on my computer?
Java is a programming environment written by Sun Microsystems. It is more than a programming language--it is more like an operating system. Screen readers, in general, don't work well in Java, if at all. If a program is written in "J-class" Java, it will be completely inaccessible. If a program is written in "Swing class" Java, it might be accessable using a program called Java Access Bridge.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Should I have JAVA on my computer?
Hi Phani and list, You'll need Java Access Bridge or Java Virtual Machine to run programs based on Java. The "Java" thing on the PC might be the Java Runtime Environment (I don't know much about it). Also, the one on Interod! Explorer is a combination of Java and Javascript (JS for short). Don't be confused between these two things: Javascript is a small applet (called a script) that allows websites to display information and allows a user to interact with the site, whereas Java is the program language. There is a help topic for JAWS which talks about Java (under Popular Applications). Cheers, Joseph P.S.
