I can't believe I'm the only one who's seen this, but I can't find anything on it from anybody else...

When I export to an applet and click on the index.html file generated, the result doesn't run on IE8 because it tells me I can't get an ActiveX control.  When I tell it to get the control, it eventually comes up but sized at 100x100 rather than the correct size.  When I try this in Firefox it comes up as only a gray 100x100 box.  Under IE8 I've tried tweaking every permission for activeX every way possible under both the Internet and Intranet zones but nothing seems to work.  Surely I'm not the first person to ever try to develop under IE8 or Firefox.  Is it impossible to develop under either of these two incredibly popular browsers?  I have a hard time believing that.  Processing apps on the web seem to work fine in both browsers.  Putting it out as a Windows application works fine.

Things work fine also when I hit the run button in the Processing PDE, but I'd like to submit to openprocessing.org and I want to make sure everthing's going to work before I submit.  Should I just assume that since the PDE version works fine that I can submit without worries?  Or can I get some browser, any browser which will actually open the generated index.html on my local machine?  Or do I have to copy it to a web page and try opening it from there?

Also make sure that you are not attempting to run an app that needs to be signed (and currently isn't). This will lead to all sorts of security issues and gray boxes.
