I am running R on a corporate Windows XP SP2 machine on which I do not have administrator privileges or access to most settings in Control Panel. R is installed from my limited user account. The version of the JVM I have
installed is perhaps best described as antique: > system(paste("java -version"),show.output.on.console=T) java version "1.4.1" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1-b21) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1-b21, mixed mode) The HTML help search applet has worked for all versions of R up to and including 2.6.0, but in 2.6.1 the java applet is not initialised ("Applet SearchEngine notinited"). I have checked Appendix D of the admin & installation manual, and the test java applet referred to does not load, but the web page says that java 1.4.2 is required. Other java applets do run in the browser, including R 2.6.0 HTML help search, so I presume java is enabled. Has something changed from 2.6.0 to 2.6.1 that may require JVM > 1.4.1? If so, I can use that information to request an upgrade of my JVM.
