So what exactly *is* "relevant" here in your opinion fuck-knuckle? Your 
resume? What ensemble you've chosen today? Mirror mirror on the wall?

Did anyone apart from your ignorant, incompetent arse mention the APPLET 
tag here?

Do you not see the quoted "PARAM tag OBJECT tag combo" reference above???

For full details of what I *AM* doing see below for those who care about 
facts. Needless to say the OBJECT/PARAM tags are, and continue to be 
fully supported in htmlN and "markspace" continues to be the incompetent 
twat that would shame a more talented troll into suicide. No wonder you 
don't use your real name you walking fucking personality disorder.

Anyone else seen Oracle Java documentation along the lines of: -
http://download.java.net/jdk8/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/applet/applet_deployment.html

Trying to get away from your unwanted and unwarranted advances? Yes!

It's not that I'm not a little flattered but I'm a confirmed 
heterosexual and happily married so I have to decline your advances, at 
least at this stage. (1)

I tell you what, why don't you Lew, Eric, and Thomas from c.l.js (and 
your ilk) download a copy of GrindR (or TrollR) for your smart phones? 
Then you can hook-up in a public-convenience somewhere and an wax anal 
about your new script that trawls Usenet for spelling errors that you 
can spend the next 8hrs correcting? "Oooh Thomas, you haven't said 
anything on-topic for weeks!". "I know markspace, but your ability to 
place you head up your arse at the slightest challenge inspires me! You 
da Man! Shute 3 is free Bitch?".

***JUST LEAVE NORMAL PEOPLE ALONE!***

As someone who can't afford official support, I tolerate the torrent of 
inane drivel that pours out of Usenet from the orifices of toss-pots 
like you. It's worthwhile 'cos sometimes competent people like Arne, 
Quoll, and Patricia find the time and sympathy to help me out. And for 
that I'm very, very grateful!

But fuck with me again and I'll go feral and track you down you prick. I 
just don't have the time for it! Therefore I undertake to never respond 
to any of your posts. Please pay me the same courtacy.

PS. The KIWIs just kicked your arse Larry you fucking loser! Loot at 
Balmer at Microsoft and do the right thing. Let Java live and escape 
your ego and the incompetence of those you employ to stroke!

PPS. Maybe markspace should create a new App called ReflectR? Wherever 
you are in the world, it will always tell you where you are and if 
you're up for it, (And not a single other soul on the radar!" Just 
imagine the narcissistic frenzy that can take place after you've re-read 
your posts here 10 times?

Real World: -

These Mosilla people really, really, rock and kick arse! Just look at 
Larry's pox of JNLP and APEX and see what they're doing with App 
Launching - Breathtaking!

(Maybe Ellison should hook-up with Balmer and talk about the old days?)
