Video Player

A page displaying a video of a Linux Magazine speaker about Apache 3.0, but the window displaying the video is a Java applet, which is surprising as Java's multimedia support has been less than impressive for a long time.

The page is also using LiveConnect to call JavaScript methods in the page, and seems to be including Prototype and JSON files too, so it's a good demonstration of applets interacting with other elements on the web page, something we covered in our JavaOne session earlier this month.
