I'd like to be able to use Yahoo Chat, in Java mode. To solve this on my PC I use Sun Java, what is available for the Axim?...for free....

wooch

The best bet would be to try NetFront 3.1 with Java Lite, but I'm not sure if this will work. You may want to log into Yahoo!'s Mobile site @ http://wap.oa.yahoo.com

I can't remember if they have a mobile chat link in there or not.

I doubt turning on scripting within PIE would allow you to use the main chat app, as it relies on either the MS Virtual Machine or the Sun Java client. There are several utilities which you can use to enable scripting in PIE.

Java and Javascript are NOT the same thing at all. Javascript is a scripting (ie interpreted) language to enhance web pages apparence (like a dynamic menu or rollover pictures), and Java is a REAL compiled language used to create standalone applications. Those Java applications can then be packaged to be used from the web (applets), but enabling scripting feature in a browser will NEVER allow you to download and use Java applets (like a chat applet). For this you need a JVM (Java Virtual Machine).

And indeed, Netfront has a little JVM (JV-Lite 2) that runs some Java applets, but not all of them. Best bet is Netfront though.
