I was wrong about the National Weather Service weather RADAR pages. When I click a "Loop" button, the display shows a message "A plugin is needed to display this content." message. I used Firefox's "Inspect Element" function, and what I see includes this:
<object id="FlAniS" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="./flanis.swf" AniS" height="700" width="620"></object>
followed by a small gray-filled rounded rectangle with "ev" inside. So these animations do not need Java, they need flash.
There is still a "gnash" website, but it shows the most recent release being about 4 years old. The Wikipedia page for "gnash" gives me the sense that it's dying thanks to legal risks and lack of programmers. I wonder... Does Redhat have the money and programmers (and legal eagles) to make a good flash substitute?! Redhat: are you listening?
In the next day or 2, I'll try working through ask.fedora question 10217 as suggested by Samuel.
I did the "setsebool" command. One of these days, I'll find a web page that will provide a test. The NWS RADAR sites are no good for this.
Thank-you.
Bill.
