ok, I’m sick of sending my friends my new web game and it not loading. Everything is Java1.1 coded.
How do I make this painless on the user? Right now I have instructions on enabling IE settings and linking http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Is there a better way for IE users?

Use WebStart and promote Java with a Get Java link. There is a fancy Active X thingy that can download Java automatically for you… I think you find it at http://java.com .
Are you targeting 1.1 when you compile with 1.4?
ya, this has really been a problem for me. I’m so use to the developement end that I dont know how to explain this with the casual visitor.
OK I got the promotion logo, I dont know much about webstart. can someone give me a quick summary of what I need to do to add this
(I was sorta running on the impression that if you could compile it with something previous to 1.2 that it should work, damn gates)
Click WIKI on the top of this page. There is a section on WebStart in there.
