Java VM/ActiveX question

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

I have a Loox 720 running 2003 SE. I am trying to use 'mywebex' to access
my desktop machine remotely. Every time I try to login it tells me that I
need to enable Java VM or Active X. How do i achieve this please?

Many thanks,

Ted

Most importantly the local client PC, ie. the PC you want to connect from,
is
specified as...

The local computer should have at least:
a.. Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, NT, XP, Server 2003
b.. Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later or Mozilla Firefox 1.0 or
later
c.. JavaScript & cookies should be enabled for the browser
d.. For Internet Explorer only: ActiveX should be enabled for the browser
e.. For Firefox only: Java enabled for the browser and Java Runtime
Environment (JRE) version 1.3.0_01 or later installed on the local computer.
To download JRE and to read more information regarding JRE, please click
here.
f.. Internet connection

There is simply no support for the PocketPC platform as a client...

Lots of web apps don't list Pocket PC as a supported platform, it doesn't
necessarily mean it's true. Since the thing works in Firefox via a Java
client, there's a fair chance it would work in NetFront on the PPC also. How
well it might work is another matter.
