Hi JohnT,

Three dimensional graphics is not standard in Java (up to JDK 1.1 at least). As
far as I know,
you could only use the External Authoring Interface to adress a VRML browser,
the Java3D API, which
is quite new (I am not sure whether it is a part of JDK 1.2) or Magician, which
is a Native interface for OpenGL.
It might help some people if you could get a little bit more concrete.
