Hi, The automatic update feature works only on Java 5.0 running on Windows 2000 with SP3 or WindowsXP. If you want to do an update, use the *Update Now* button for manually updating Java. The Java Plug In Control Panel is reached via the Windows system control panel. See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/faq.html for more information. As for what the bridge does, it makes it possible for a Windows based Assistive Technology to get at and interact with the Java Accessibility API. For more details see http://java.sun.com/products/accessbridge/ Michele Djasister2@xxxxxxx wrote: >How do I know if automatic is on? >And I am using XP so what do I need? > > >-- >To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to >jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line. >Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfw > >If you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the >way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
