Version de Java et mise à jours : GeneValorization uses the Java version 6. If you don't have java, or if you are not sure to have the right version installed, please go to this page of the official Java website to check it (if not, it will allow you to install it).

Since Java 7 (recent Java >7r51) : You have to allow Java to run GeneValorization , to do so you have to open the configuration panel of Java. Go to the "Security" tab, puis "Edit Site List", click on "add" and then enter "http://www.bioguide-project.net/gv/", click on "continue", then two times on "OK" and it is done.

GeneValorization uses a recent technology, the Java WebStart, therefore we strongly recommend you to use a recent browser. Any of the 4 browsers below would work perfectly.

Firefox	Internet Explorer 8	Safari	Google Chrome
