Message:

1. The Phrase Browse tab (in my tudor collection which has a Phind browser) now links to the webswing-phind.xsl page, loading the Phind applet (JPhind JApplet) as a webswing application. 2. The applet status bar wasn't appearing. I'm not sure if it's because browser support for applets has stopped so that a status window is no longer provided to Applets for showStatus() calls (see the API for this Applet method) or whether webswing doesn't provide a status window, but since we're printing meaningful information to the status window, I've now opened up the JPhind code that creates and uses the custom statusBar when JPhind is run as an application (instead of when run as an applet) when JPhind is now run as an applet also.
