The first one -- what country is that, .ch? I guess if you search the world, you'll find one.

The other was a UK company trying to sell java services, hence the applet.

So forgive me, if I was absolute, and said there weren't any anywhere in the world. But my analysis still seems correct. Clearly the fellow above was referring to JavaScript menus which can sometimes be slow to load. He was likely not referring to Java applets, which maybe 15 people in the world would be insane enough to use. It's just not the right technology for that.

An applet is an application, not at all for website navigation. Anymore than you should build a game out of JavaScript.

Now you can go out and find me links to JavaScript games. I've seen a pretty good battleship, in fact. But I'm still correct in saying you don't build games out of JavaScript.

You don't build web page navigation out of java applets. Basically no one does.
