JavaFX Fail
March 20th, 2009
JavaFX never seems to work for me. I assumed it was because I use a Mac, but developers assure me the examples work on Leopard. Not my Leopard, apparently.
Step 1
Click the Launch button at this page. This is on Leopard with Firefox version 3.0.7.
Step 2
Receive error.
Step 3
The details:
This happened to me the other day on a completely different web site with a similar kind of example. The error message — Server response code: 500 — makes it look like the problem is on Sun’s end.
Not good enough.
UPDATE
Now it works. This makes me believe the frequent errors I see are on Sun’s servers.
