Help needed for using MapImage applet

[Stephen Lime]

On the errors. Most certainly a java setup problem. Are classpath values correct? You need Sun's JDK AND the Netscape LiveConnect classes.

On public methods. It's easy. Assuming the applet is named "mapimage" just use:

  document.mapimage.bonOn();

The mapimage applet has been totally re-written and that version needs to be uploaded and documented.

Hmmmm, I use this applet, but I've never seen that one, I was having
aproblem with my [img] reference having to be a fully referenced URL of the
"http://myhost.com[img]" type, that was giving a similar yet different error
message.

On the same topic though, how do I access the supposedly exported boxOn and
BoxOff methods ????

Maybe documenting this applet could become part of the -docs mailing list
discussions.
