I have only seen LWJGL for the first time today and I have a quick question: if I use LWJGL in applets will the user be prompted to accept a security certificate inside the browser the first time it is run or is it like JOGL where Sun actually signs the JARs to get around this problem?

You will be prompted to accept a security certificate the first time an lwjgl applet is run.

However do note that Sun (now Oracle) have abandoned their official support for JOGL, it still continues as a community project but is now in the same boat as LWJGL where you will also have to accept a security certificate as Oracle will not longer provide the project with a magic certificate.

Ah, I see!  Well there goes that advantage that JOGL had.  Thanks for the quick reply.
