Shawn:

There's so many ways this could go wrong....

First off, JB 3 will default to JDK 1.2, which browsers don't support
yet.  Make sure you use an older JDK for your code.  I'd have to guess
this is the initial problem you are having because not even your text is
showing up.

IE4 doesn't have good Java support, and more importantly doesn't have a
Java console from which you can get your real error messages to help
diagnose the problem.  You should at least use IE 4.01 or higher.  (If
you get IE5, you'll then find that MS doesn't like Java and you'll have
to install the VM separately.)  Solving the problem keys off of getting
the error from the Java console in the browser.

Your best bet to have images visible in IE (it will vary from version to
version) is to *not* store the images in your archive file.

applets, try:  http://www.got.net/~rwilkman/java

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will

a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
