i need Rhino to also work within explorer (running the original
microsoft jvm)!

the reason is that the "audience" i'm targetting is the average
web-surfer and therefore java 1.1 applets are still the de-facto
choice, i guess.

anyway, under microsoft jvm:

- using a small-footprint js.jar, as far as now, i can execute scripts
and receive correct line-numbers in case of errors.

- the "only" problem is that i receive all the time
"com.ms.security.SecurityExceptionEx" exceptions.

- i can't manage to catch them.

- these are not fatal exceptions (the applet is still running) but i
guess it's not very sane to build on such a situation.

- i would like to avoid using signed applets (as an eventual
workaround).


does anyone have some experience in this area?

thanks!
