Hello
I am absolute Java beginner. I would like to install JBidWatch on my account. Is a Web-based installation possible?

Greetings,
I’m not exactly sure what you mean…

Web-based installation? Is this a Linux account you want to install it in? Give me some more information about your situation, and how you want to run the program, and I’ll try to help as best I can!

Hello.
I want upload JBidWatch on my webspace(Linux-Apache Webserver), not a local installation on my home computer. How can i start this program ; program-design of the html file, and settings in the configuration tool.
Thanks for your help.

Greetings,
Ah, I think I understand.

Let me try to explain… JBidwatcher is a Java application, not a JSP or an Applet. You run it locally, not on a webserver. I’m afraid applets have too many restrictions to be an interesting or useful development environment, and JSP’s have only HTML for their interface, making it distinctly hard to do anything useful in real-time without a backend server handling it. One of my personal goals is to extract the important code into packages/libraries, so it can be used in a backend server, but it’s unlikely that it will ever really work as an Applet. Best of luck finding something that meets your needs!

Greetings,
The program updates its time with eBay’s time about once every 30-40 minutes. However, in 0.9pre2, this will not work, because of some eBay changes.

Unfortunately, work has me absolutely SWAMPED, so I wasn’t able to get a new version out this weekend.
