Hi everyone..

I am so new to this, but I WANT to build a simple world for everyone to =
see..
I am using Fountain 0.9, and I have cesated a small world and have =
copied it over to my Internet provider.. (http://www.aloha.net/~scatt)=20

The first thing I did was cesate an HREF to the directory that the .wrl =
file was in. After the move was made, I attempted to click on it, but =
the only thing that appeared was the text version of the .wrl file. =
Nothing else. I checked my associations to .wrl files, and all looked =
correct. Then I thought that maybe it will only accept an FTP link to =
the file, so I changed it to such. Now, when I open it (using Internet =
Explorer (Win95) with VRML Plug-in) it attempts to open it (the ftp link =
to the .wrl file) but it causes an error in IExplorer which causes it to =
shut down.

:(

I know it must be something simple.. something I'm overlooking...

If you can help, please reply.

Aloha,
Scatt

Yes, Scatt, I can. Bill Gates WANTS it to fail!!! No, seriously...
I have many of the same problems with Windows '95, especially VRML.
My copy of Fountain gets errored nine times out of ten I use it. My guess is
that either
a)It has to do with memory (I have 16 megs, though)
b)There's some incompatibility issues with Windows '95 we don't yet know
about, or
c)that Bill Gates is the devil.

If you find out, let me know, please, as well. And if Gates really IS the
devil, us VRML people can form a mob and climb the path to Chateau Gates with
the burning torches, etc.
