Welcome to the JavaTM 2 Platform

Welcome to the JavaTM 2 Standard Edition Runtime Environment. This provides complete runtime support for Java 2 applications.

The runtime environment includes the Java Plug-in which supports running the Java 2 environment inside Netscape web browsers.

Note that the Java 2 Runtime Environment does not replace the existing Java environment provided with your browser. Old applets will still get the browser's default Java environment. New web pages designed for the Java 2 Platform can use special HTML tags to invoke the Java 2 Runtime Environment.
