3 We are currently (Sept. 97) in a transitory situation where a few preleased features of JDK 1.1 such as the Java DataBase Connection (JDBC) are supported by the primary browser Netscape 3.0 and Internet Explorer 3.0, but most JDK 1.1 features are not yet supported in commonly available browsers, except for HotJava.
  • Netscape4.0 and Internet Explorer 4.0 do suport JDK 1.1
