Many thanks - that particular trouble derived from a Java Runtime bug, which was fixed, and not in Cindy, but now we have a new issue: I can't persuade the Java Plugin to run Java Applets offline, in any browser, because of Java's new security arrangements.

This is a serious nuisance.

If I want a web page, even from my own web-site, to show a Cindy-made applet, I must download the page from the internet. Now, I often used a local copy of my site in talks and demos in places without a web connection — but can no longer do this. I am seriously vexed!

Moreover, Cindy's "web-ready" publications simply do not show, in any browser, so local web-page development, at least in regard to applets, is now nearly impossible (although, strangely, I can cut and paste the applet code from Cindy's publishings, and that from the internet. So much for security!). Thus Java updating has broken your "Publish to the Web" facilities.

Almost certainly other Cindy users have hit this problem. Have they, or you, found a workaround?

Best.
