I did this for some other programms

CLASSPATH=/usr/local/lib/netscape/java_30

-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  723652 Aug 28 14:15 /usr/local/lib/netscape/java_30


Other changes: nothing which affect Netscape's Navigator (hope so :-) )

Javascript works fine! JAVA applets not.

None Java applet produces any message (no errors also). Is there a debug-mode or
something else in Netscape's Navigator 3.0?? Netscape does something when an
applet will be loaded, but it displays only the html code.

What's going wrong on my system? Nobody knows :-(
....and I don't want to spend  much time to solve this prob.
