>From all this discussion, I gather that Applets are not the problem, Swing
is. But I thought Swing was the latest GUI development framework for Java,
what with the much tom-tommed light-weight components et al. Is there no
future or Swing then in the Web world? And after working with Swing, I found
it amazingly more exhaustive than AWT. Also, since Sun came out Swing, they
would not enhance the UI delegates of AWT anymore, would they? So you end up
being stuck with very basic UI features. Are the browsers ever going to be
Swing compatible? or will we for ever be stuck with using old AWT for HTTP
tunneling?
