Java 1.4.1 Update for Mac OS X

[iccy82]

yahoo games doesnt work no (in safari, v64) works ok in both camino (if you can live with it crashing over and over) and IE (argh!!!!)

but i dunno, ive seen a dramatic increase in the number of crashes since download - can this be coincidental?

but more than not its to do with the individual software and not java's problem!

eBay

I've had difficulty setting up eBay auctions with Safari too, but I'm not sure Java is the culprit.

The problem, as somebody mentioned, is that you cannot successfully upload images using Safari (at least, I can't). But isn't this a symptom of Javascript, and not Java? I'm no programmer, but my understanding is that they're entirely separate langauges, with separate implementations.

I wish I had something to sell right now, so that I could try it out. Anyone interested in buying a half-used Epson cartridge?

Uh, Bousozoku, I tried eweek.com, and it loads fine for me. Furthermore, I took a look at the page source, and I don't believe there is any Java involved (they use ASP's - boo). There is javascript, but that is no relation to Java.

Hey guys, I use Eclipse on Windows at work, but there is no Os X version. Furthermore, I was under the impression that they use their own binary UI classes, not Swing, so I fail to see how it could even run under X11 on OS X.

If I'm wrong, I'll be happy to be set straight.

The only difference I can imagine that I'm having with Java applets, at EWeek and elsewhere, is that I've got folding@home running on both processors. I'll try it when one of the processes achieves a checkpoint.

As far as Eclipse goes, I was going to download the source code to see what's going on there. It does seem as though Websphere Developer, after which it was supposedly developed, is only available on Windows.

I also noticed with this Java update that there's still no Java3D. I just came from the J3D.org website and they mentioned that there was apparently a port going on at one time but Apple apparently refused the licencing agreement.
