I'm not sure you can do development for web apps in the true Debian way. While some progress has been made in some GUI classes in FOSS implementations of Java, I don't think any FOSS implementations include the ones you'll need to create the components you'll need for an applet. I could be wrong on this, so if I am I hope someone will correct me. There was a discussion within the past few weeks about how to install Java (as in Sun's Java) in the Debian way, and it is possible to make it into a package, as it would be to do the same with Netbeans. If you search the archives for Java, you should find it in the posts over the last month or so. Hal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
