1. We use IE6 on Windows 2000 and I've developed a Java 1.5 applet. The
problem is, HTMLConverter doesn't seem to work. If the 1.5 jre/plug-in
is present on the client machine the applet runs fine, otherwise, it
does not. I thought that if the required jre wasn't present, the
HTMLConverter generated tags would initiate a download. Instead, IE
complains that ActiveX has been disabled. However, every ActiveX
property on IE6 has been set to enabled.

2. We have customised a 3rd party product to launch a URL if a certain
button is clicked. If the URL points to a standard HTML page everything
works fine. However, if the URL points to an applet page, the applet
does not get launched in the new browser window - instead, it hijacks
one of the existing windows and blows up. The application launching my
browser/applet is also an applet. I've tried javascript to launch my
applet in yet another window, but that doesn't work either.

Could the problem stem from the fact that th 3rd party applet is run
via Oracle's JInitiator? Has any one had problems mixing JInitiator
applets with normal ones which are trying to use the browser's default
plugin.

Many thanks in advance.
