java is interpreted by the browser.  both ie4 and ie5 support java, but
there may be security settings that need to be changed (go to tools and then
internet options if you think this is the case).  

however, if you've got java code in an html document, it won't work.  java
has to be compiled.  the basic process is:
   * java code is written and saved in a .java file (e.g., myProgram.java).

   * myProgram.java is then compiled using the jdk (java developer's kit -
see http://www.sun.com)
   * once compiled, a .class file is produced.  this .class file is then
referenced in your html and shows up on your web page.

Subject: How Do I Get JAVA To Work?

I cannot get JAVA to work when I paste borrowed code into an HTNL page.  My
company has standard desktops with IE 4 or 5 on every workstation. I
maintain a web server running IIS 4.  Do I need to install java onto the IIS
server....if so, where?
