Hy all,

i'd like to know what's the best vrml plugin/browser pair over macos x
10.3.7.

some vrml aren't working well over cortona:[Camino|firefox]
for example, page <http://www.pims.math.ca/knotplot/vrml/vrml.html>
(first knot)

my domain of interest is topology.

that's something I also would like to know. My mac-mini will
arrive next week and that's the first think I will try to get running :)
Is there a how-to for VRML/X3D on Mac ?

Those files are vrml-1. I don't know if cortona can handle vrml-1
files out of the box

For display, it may be usefull to convert this files to VRML first.

Some modellers (like cinema4D, ac3d or blender), which are available at
the mac can load VRML1 and save VRML2/VRML97.
