I was wrong about the National Weather Service weather RADAR pages.  When I 
click a "Loop" button, the display shows a message "A plugin is needed to 
display this content." message.  I used Firefox's "Inspect Element" function, 
and what I see includes this:
     <object id="FlAniS" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
data="./flanis.swf" AniS" height="700" width="620"></object>
followed by a small gray-filled rounded rectangle with "ev" inside.  So these 
animations do not need Java, they need flash.

There is still a "gnash" website, but it shows the most recent release being 
about 4 years old.  The Wikipedia page for "gnash" gives me the sense that it's 
dying thanks to legal risks and lack of programmers.  I wonder...  Does Redhat 
have the money and programmers (and legal eagles) to make a good flash 
substitute?!  Redhat: are you listening?

In the next day or 2, I'll try working through ask.fedora question 10217 as 
suggested by Samuel.

I did the "setsebool" command.  One of these days, I'll find a web page that 
will provide a test.  The NWS RADAR sites are no good for this.

Thank-you.
Bill.
