I am using sun's java: java version "1.6.0_19" installed under /usr/jdk I right clicked on the CelsiusConverter.jnlp file. In the dialog box, I selected the "Open with" tab. I clicked the Add button. Select "Use a custom command" and entered /usr/jdk/bin/javaws. Closed all dialog windows. Double clicked on the CelsiusConverter.jnlp icon on the desktop. Javaws lauched the app and I converted temperatures. -- Brian Millett - [ Timov, "Soul Mates"] "The secret of our marriage's success, Londo, is our lack of communication."
