(Confused me for a long time, too.) I am being very careful to not include outside material and/or non-conformant tags. Back and forth to the w3c docs to make sure I am doing things correct.

Right? Remember I mentioned having the plate and silverware ready for potential eating of crow ... well, of course I didn't check that and I am preparing the crow. Looking at WinXP, it has extensions Java Console 6.0.26 and Java Quick Starter 1.0. It has plug-ins Java Deployment Toolkit 6.0.260.3 and Java (tm) Platform SE6 U26 6.0.260.3. The Linux has nothing with the word Java in it. Can I at least cook the crow or is this one that requires "raw with feathers"? I gotta dig to figure out what these items are and which are needed ...

As I mentioned before, I sent the original email to see if I missed something obvious (and I think that paid off with your reply). My next step was to create a test html/javascript to duplicate by reduction of original (and make sure that I wasn't doing something dumb in my original). Let me try looking at the add-ons and, if that doesn't do it, I will create the example. > Joel Res -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
