Anyone knows if all webbrowsers/platforms support java applets with v1.4.2? (If you install the 1.4.2 runtime that is)
The browser is not involved, it just delegates to whatever version of hte plugin you have (auto-installed by the java installer). If your browser can do flash etc then it can do java.
Although I’ve only personally testeed on MSIE, NN, Moz, and Opera …
Cool. Thanks 
The browser is somewhat involved. At lest on Mac OS X. Safari supports 1.4.2, but IE and Netscape on Mac, only see the older 1.3 plugin, since the way the plugin works changed or something along those lines. I’m not sure what other Mac browsers support 1.4.2.
