I have a webpage that runs on both a regular pc and pocket pc. On the pc I
had to download the JRE from sun.com but I can't find where to download the
equivalent for the Pocket PC to view the web page. I am running both Windows
Mobile and Pocket PC 2002. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

RE title : Actually that would be "Java" (which pocket IE can't
handle) rather than "Javascripts" which pocket IE supports to a
degree. Java and Javascript are separate things despite the confusing
similarity in the name, there's no connection between them.

You'll need to get a new browser - google for the "Netfront Browser"
which does support Java used in web pages.

You actually need Java, not Javascript. Access Netfront should do what you
need.
