Java Crossword Puzzle Problem

[Andrew Robinson <awrobinson@xxxxxxx>]

I'm running Fedora Core 3, Firefox 1.03 and Java jre1.5.0_02. When I 
bring up the Washington Post Crossword puzzle, which is a java applet, I 
cannot get letters to appear in the squares. I have had no trouble with 
this in the past on other operating systems or older versions of Fedora. 
I have experienced some weirdness under Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise 
Linux with this crossword puzzle in the past. When I start the applet, 
the first word gets filled in automatically. I haven't seen this 
behavior under Mac OS or Windoze. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else 
had seem similar problems, knew what caused the problem, and what the 
solution is? I miss my nightly crossword puzzle.
