+<body>
+<h2>Instructions for Installing
+Java&nbsp;3D<sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup> 1.4.0-beta3</h2>
+<p>The 1.4.0-beta3 version of the Java&nbsp;3D<sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup>
+API runs on JDK version 1.4.2 and higher. It has been released for
+the Solaris, Linux, and Windows operating
+environments.<br>
+</p>
+<hr>
+<p><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">NOTE: This
+pre-release version does not yet come with an installer.
+Beginning with the 1.4.0-beta4 release, we will provide an installer
+for the Windows operating
+environment, and a self-extracting binary for the Solaris and Linux
+operating
+environments.</span><br>
+</p>
+<hr>
+<p>This interrim build runs on JDK version 1.4.2 and higher.
+To install this build, chdir to the "jre" directory within the jdk
+and unzip (or unjar) the zip file. For example, if your JDK is
+installed
+in /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06, you would install this as follows:
+</p>
+<ul>
+cd /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06<br>
+unzip /path-to-extracted-files/j3d-140-*.zip<br>
+</ul>
+<p>You may need to be "root" to do this on Solaris or Linux.</p>
+<p>Here is an example of how to install Java 3D 1.4.0-beta3 on a
+Windows/XP system:</p>
+<ol>
+ <li>Download java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586.zip to a temporary
+directory,
+for example, "c:\Temp"</li>
+ <br>
+ <li>Unzip java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586.zip (using WinZip or a
+similar
+tool) into "c:\Temp". You will see the following files in the
+"java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586" subdirectory:</li>
+ <br>
+ <ul>
+COPYRIGHT.txt<br>
+HOW-TO-INSTALL.txt<br>
+LICENSE-JRL.txt<br>
+README.txt<br>
+j3d-140-beta3-win.zip<br>
+ </ul>
+ <br>
+The only file you need is "j3d-140-beta3-win.zip".<br>
+ <br>
+ <li>Unzip Java 3D 1.4.0-beta3 into your JRE as follows:<br>
+ <br>
+ </li>
+ <ul>
+ <li>Locate your "JRE". The default location for the current release
+is:
+"c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06"</li>
+ <br>
+ <li>Unzip j3d-140-beta3-win.zip (found in
+c:\Temp\java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586)
+to the jre directory.</li>
+ <br>
+ <li>Verify that the j3d*.jar and vecmath.jar files end up in:
+"c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\lib\ext"</li>
+ <br>
+ <li>Verify that the j3d*.dll files end up in:
+"c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin"</li>
+ </ul>
+ <br>
+ <li>If you also installed the JDK, unzip Java 3D 1.4.0-beta3 into the
+"jre"
+directory of your JDK as follows:</li>
+ <br>
+ <ul>
+ <li>Locate the jre directory of your "JDK". The default location
+for the
+current release is: "c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre"</li>
+ <br>
+ <li>Unzip j3d-140-beta3-win.zip (found in
+c:\Temp\java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586)
+to the jre directory of the JDK.</li>
+ <br>
+ <li>Verify that the j3d*.jar and vecmath.jar files end up in:
+"c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre\lib\ext"</li>
+ <br>
+ <li>Verify that the j3d*.dll files end up in:
+"c:\Program&nbsp;Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre\bin"</li>
+ </ul>
+</ol>
