Java Virtual Machine alternatives on Amiga

https://www.netbank.nordea.dk/netbank/index.jsp

Hmm, that URL shows a misconfigured server (HTML pages being parsed as text- JSP pages are like ASP or PHP, the language is server-side which sends HTML pages with dynamic content).  Going to the domain name itself without any further directory/file reference gets me a foreign-language site which appears to be working ok, but because I can't understand the language I can't find the online banking section.

The second site mentioned, BG Netbank or something does appear to require Java, though I just get a blank page, so I can't be sure about that.  Loading it in Mozilla just gives me a blank page, usually there would be an applet window saying that the JVM plug-in is required, and in IE the page just times out :-)

@mikeymike
hehe that's what we have to stick up with in Denmark...

That's pure evil... The java is so complex and secure that no browser can read the contents of the page :-D

@mikeymike

the same here with the first bank (only text) but with BG Netbank and IB2.3, works here with a long "javascript runnings alert" but works.

Obviously i don't know about its Home banking page.

okay, Tried that in Mozilla and just got the HTML code for the page. Leaving off the index.jsp and it loads up fine with the applet area as to install plugin.
In IE, applet seems to load then IE just exists.
My stupid XPbox doesn't seem to like Java.

I haven't seen any online banking sites that require Java, that's all.

The BSCH in Spain reuires it:

and it doesn't work with MS JVM, It requires Sun's one.

Yeah, I also tried leaving out the index.jsp, but that doesn't get my online with the bank :-(

Well, I have to ask the bank if they have an alternativ system that I can use, but I'm afraid the answer is a big fat NO.

A pity that Holger Kruse' work isn't continued. I would do it if I knew a lot about Java, but I don't, so it's for the best to leave that for someone else.

I also live in Denmark and haven't been able to find a bank that doesn't require JAVA (NOT JavaScript).

So it's not as easy as changing bank as most of the online systems are based on the same soloution.

(EDIT:) If any Danes know of a bank that doesn't require JAVA please let me know!

:-(
