The application I am currently developing is a Java Applet and I use the
VisAD API.
I do simple 2D graphing of environmental model data and it works fine in
Intenet Explorer 6.0. I also just downloaded Netscape 6.1 and it works fine
with it. I had to install the Java Plug-in when running under MS IE. I
assume Netscape automatically uses the plug-in also when running my applet.
Though I am only utilizing a small part of the VisAD API in creating 2D
plots of data, so I can't speak for any issues that may occur in any of the
more complex methods such as the 3D stuff.
