I haven’t read the article, but here’s what I know : Microsoft has taken the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) out of Explorer 6. It’s not Javascript, but Java (it’s Sun MS trialing Microsoft…). Basically, the JVM is a little program that interprets Java code. You have to download it if you want to be able to execute Java now. Conclusion : use Netscape ! pom 0] ---

Yeah that’s Java not javascript… different beasty… I do not however support POM’s concept that this is a final straw or anything like that, which will force me to go NN. There are still to many nice features about IE that I like. And as for downloading something, that is going to happen all the time, no matter what browser you have. As always, to each their own. ---

Doesn’t mean anything. It’s just that Phil reads like Fil, which means Wire. Actually, that’s not totally true, as one might extrapolate a little bit, thinking that saying that somebody is wire could mean that he’s very very skinny… \<— was that English at all ?? pom 0] , représentant de la langue de Molière sur ce forum avec Eyez quand même.
