Am I causing myself a lot of extra pain by using Netscape to 
view Java applets rather than using the HotJava browser? The 
reason I ask is because all the sample programs I ever type in 
out of books and from the Java documentation, seem to need 
some slight modification in order to be seen in Netscape. Is 
Netscape more annal retentive than the HotJava browser? Could 
I save some time, getting to the coding stage faster, by using 
the HotJava browser, and then worrying about Netscape later? 
If anyone has used both of these browsers, or if anyone can 
enlighten me at all, then I would be extremely grateful.

P.S. I love these newsgroups. I don't think there's any way of 
learning any faster than hearing it right from the horses 
mouth. I'd take a newsgroup over a good programming book any 
day.
