<h2><a href="http://services.netbeans.org/newsletter/story.php?id=9847">Tip: JavaFX Graphics & HTTP Link Checkers</a></h2>
<p style="margin-left:8px;"><img src='http://services.netbeans.org/appl/show_image.php?id=9281&column=image&table=story&type=image/png&db=services&db_type=pear&id_col=story_id'
height='79' width='110' alt='image' style='float:left; margin-right:5px;margin-bottom:5px;'/>
JavaFX is a set of graphics and media packages that enables developers to design, create, test, debug, and deploy rich client applications that operate consistently across diverse platforms. Because the JavaFX library is written as a Java API, the JavaFX application code can reference APIs from any Java library. For example, JavaFX applications can use Java API libraries to access native system capabilities and connect to server-based middleware applications.</p><br style="clear:both;"/>
