I'm not running galeon, since it's not in woody yet. However, I went to that page with yesterday's mozilla nightly and, while it didn't crash, it didn't load either and I got the following in the java console (so it appears that either the applet's broken or there's a bug in the jre): WldNewsTick 3.2.7 Copyright Alex Hooper, lx solutions ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) WldNewsTick 3.2.7 Copyright Alex Hooper, lx solutions ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) WldNewsTick 3.2.7 Copyright Alex Hooper, lx solutions ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://sfports.wr.usgs.gov/wind/data/windsuv20018128.out at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:574) at sun.plugin.protocol.jdk12.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:326) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getHeaderField(HttpURLConnection.java:817) at sun.plugin.protocol.jdk12.http.HttpURLConnection.checkCookieHeader(HttpURLConnection.java:267) at sun.plugin.protocol.jdk12.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:324) at java.net.URL.openStream(URL.java:798) at Dustlet.update_wind_data(Dustlet.java:187) at Dustlet.start(Dustlet.java:89) at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(AppletPanel.java:358) at sun.plugin.navig.motif.MotifAppletViewer.maf_run(MotifAppletViewer.java:127) at sun.plugin.navig.motif.MotifAppletViewer.run(MotifAppletViewer.java:123) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) java.lang.NullPointerException at Dust.lookup_uv(Dust.java:191) at Dust.stepmotes(Dust.java:245) at Dustlet.step(Dustlet.java:204) at Dustlet.run(Dustlet.java:218) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) Exception occurred during event dispatching: java.lang.NullPointerException at Dust.lookup_uv(Dust.java:191) at Dust.drawmotes(Dust.java:229) at Dustlet.paint(Dustlet.java:156) at sun.awt.RepaintArea.paint(RepaintArea.java:298) at sun.awt.motif.MComponentPeer.handleEvent(MComponentPeer.java:349) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Component.java:2663) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:1213) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:2497) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:339) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:131) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:98) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:93) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:85) Exception occurred during event dispatching: java.lang.NullPointerException at Dust.lookup_uv(Dust.java:191) at Dust.drawmotes(Dust.java:229) at Dustlet.paint(Dustlet.java:156) at Dustlet.update(Dustlet.java:144) at sun.awt.RepaintArea.update(RepaintArea.java:337) at sun.awt.motif.MComponentPeer.handleEvent(MComponentPeer.java:353) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Component.java:2663) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:1213) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:2497) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:339) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:131) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:98) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:93) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:85) <rest of error list truncated>
