JAVA player bug?
My BREAKOUT GAME works fine in Scratch, and works fine online in the FLASH player.
BUT it doesn't work online in the JAVA player. I cleaned up the code and thought that would fix it - but it didn't.

Will the flash player become the default player soon? It seems better 99% of the time.
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK. MY SON AND I LOVE SCRATCH!

Re: JAVA player bug?
PROBLEM SOLVED.
The problem was a difference in how Java and Flash treat the string value "true." In certain situations the Java player would change the value to the number 1. I made a simple Java detector based on this.
