SwingTest - Graceful Browser Detection of Java Swing
Introduction
Are you writing applets with Java Swing and need a way to determine whether or not your potential users have Swing installed and working properly?
If the user has Java Swing installed in their browser, they will see a message saying: You Have Swing (user configurable) and the applet will turn into a link to another webpage (user configurable).
If the user does not have Java Swing installed they will be presented with a user configurable button that will take them to a page that gives instructions on how to get Java Swing installed in their browser.
