Java Webring Home : Java Glossary

Java Webring Home

The Java Ring links together websites of interest to Java programmers, not to be confused with JavaScript. Sun defines the official Java language. If you’re not familiar with the concept of Rings, check out the WebRing.com or my essay on webrings.

This Ring is open to all groups, organizations, services, directories, businesses, and individuals who have web pages about Java programming, Weblets, Applets, applications, servlets, programming tools or class libraries written in or for Java.
Your site should at least be viewable without ActiveX. ActiveX is too big a security risk to turn on generally. You might still use this tool to enhance your site, but visitors without it enabled should at least see something.
Place your nav bar on the page most closely related to the webring topic, or on a page reserved for all your webrings. The URL you register at WebRing.com must be the exact page where your navbar is. If you put navbar somewhere else, the automated link-checking software won’t be able to find it and WebRing.com will automatically suspend your membership in the ring.
Please validate the HTML on your website to make sure it contains no errors. Otherwise people who use a browser different from yours may not be able to see the fruits of your work. I suggest using a validator called HTMLValidator. Click to

Click the corresponding browser icon to download the latest free browser software, or click the browser name for more information.
Please check that your own website works with all of these up-to-date-browsers:
	Opera	10.01	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Fast and light. Accurate CSS.
	Avant	11.7:41	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). It is a fast browser, especially at starting up. Has problems with JavaScript. Excellent and rendering and printing tables. It uses the IE rendering engine.
	Firefox	3.5.4	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Most widely supported next to IE. Many add-ins. Somewhat sluggish.
	Sea Monkey	2.0	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Similar to Firefox, with integrated Email.
	Safari	4.0.3	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Now works both on Macs and PCs. Some rendering problems.
	Flock	2.5.5	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Similar to Firefox for social networking.
	Google Chrome	3.0.195.27	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Frequently updated.
	IE8	8.0.6001.18813	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Out of spite, blocks Java unless you OK. It has many bugs and crashes frequently. Renders column classes correctly.
	IE7	7.0.6000	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). It is pain to get Java Web Start working.
	IE6	6.0.2800	with the Java 1.6.0_17 JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Not secure.
	Sun’s Java	1.6.0_17	JRE (Java Runtime Environment)

It costs nothing to belong to the ring. No ads will appear on your webpages.
As ringmaster, I make the final decision on who gets in. The main reasons sites don’t get on the ring are:
1. problems installing the nav bar.
2. website still under construction.
3. lack of a Java relevance.
4. HTML that works only on one browser.

Still interested? Then follow these instructions:

Click join on the yellow Java Ring nav bar below. If for some reason you can’t see it, click here instead. The nav bar is the yellow bar with links to the next and previous sites on the ring. Just follow your nose.
If you want more explicit help on joining, installing the nav bar, etc, see these instructions.
