orig synopsis: "Missing documentation for depreciated method"

Not exactly a bug per se, but certainly needs to be addressed.
  Missing info in Documentation.
| H:\Java_source\Date_Time\DisplayDateTime.java:55: Note: The method
| java.awt.FontMetrics getFontMetrics(java.awt.Font) in class java.awt.Toolkit
| has been deprecated.
| FontMetrics fm = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getFontMetrics(new
| Font("Courier",Font.BOLD|Font.ITALIC,18));

I can't find anything in the doc's as to what method I should be
using.

Would you be so kind as to e-mail the missing info to me as well as adding for others.

Thank you,

PS
I have also noted that the Java Plug-In that a converted applet directs one to ie ver. 1.1.1 and not the same as what is packaged with the Platform 2 JRE. I have installed this Plug-In and found that the applets I'm using will not run with it, but will run with the Plug-In supplied with the Platform 2 JRE.
