Comments
EVALUATION We have been in contact with ESPRE Solutions regarding their video applets and the fact that they do not work in the new Java Plug-In in IE. Their applets are very complicated and are driven by over 10,000 lines of JavaScript on the web page. It is basically impossible for us to track down by ourselves exactly what is the incompatibility causing their applets to fail to run. Apparently they have more recent code in-house that works with the new plug-in but has not been pushed to their public web site. The contact information has been added to the Comments section. Downgrading this to a P5 as there is nothing more we can do, but leaving the bug open for tracking purposes.
