In fact, there is a reverse problem, i.e., some applets do not work locally when they want to open local files. E.g., /usr/local/openjdk6/demo/applets/MoleculeViewer/ and /usr/local/openjdk6/demo/applets/WireFrame/ fail because they cannot open files in subdirectory (models). If anyone can reproduce the same problem under Linux environment, please file an upstream PR here: http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/ > > BTW, IcedTea plugin is not 100% compatible with Sun/Oracle's. > > Your mileage may vary. ;-) > > But the underlying Java is OpenJDK, right? Almost. ;-) There is a big missing piece for applet support in OpenJDK, i.e., Web Start. IcedTea team imported Netx as a replacement but it is not quite drop-in replacement, IMHO: http://jnlp.sourceforge.net/netx/ http://langel.wordpress.com/2008/01/11/icedtea-and-netx/ Jung-uk Kim
