If you do use this, you should be sure and check it in multiple browsers
and platforms if it's for a web browser. That one doesn't work
correctly for me in Netscape 7.1 on Mac OS X. It doesn't work at all in
Internet Explorer 5.2.3 there. It does work in Safari, which is the
only browser I have that supports the latest Java. The unfortunate fact
is that webmasters put false statements on their pages saying that it
needs the Sun Java 2 plug-in, when that is not available for all
platforms.
