Aww, man! I can't get the Falstad physics applets to work anymore. :-(

(The web page claims that "you must have the Java plug-in installed". 
Which is true - but it's equally true that in fact I *have* got Java 
installed.)

Does it work for anyone else?

I had to enable the plugin and restart firefox, but it seems to work now.

OK, so it's just my PC that's busted then. Time to investigate...

Works for me on my old Windows XP machine--but I first had to download the Java
Runtime Environment for Firefox (which I didn't know I didn't have!)

Very cool! Thanks for the link.

Yeah, Mr Falstad has done some incredibly entertaining stuff here. It's 
just a pity most of it seems to have been written in 1997 or so, when 
running compute-heavy stuff in Java was so slow that everybody designed 
stuff to run at really low resolutions. But anyway, gold none the less.

On closer inspection, Firefox has disabled the Java plugin "due to 
serious security issues", whatever that means. Now I just need to figure 
out how the hell to fix that...

FF 17.0.1 works for me.

Also, you can scale the applet.

Apparently, just install a newer version of Java. Go figure.
