11-28 XPViewer on WinNT/95:
Goto java.sun.com and scroll all the way down. You will see a big ugly gray box
that reads 'APPLET'.
What you should see is a list of site navigation links.
Currently the DevPreview is not java enabled. That's all well and good but the
way it's currently done is not the same as 'turning java off'. Most pages with
java sniff your browser first and if you aren't java enabled serve up alternate
content. With XPViewer you never see the alternate content because it still tries
to act like it's java enabled.
URL: java.sun.com → http://java.sun.com
Yeah we know Java applets are not working, but the browser should read
the ALT content within the APPLET TAG, we're not even doing that...
You'll have to jump to the URL above to see what we mean....compare
to 4.5X.

Andrei is handling tag specific issues.
actually I wasn't clear. I didn't mean ALT as an attribute.
I simply meant embedded HTML within the APPLET tag which is supposed
to show up when a browser doesn't support Java like in the case
of Raptor right now.
