applet background transparent

[parallon]

Hey there all, I found a free applet on the web, but I want to know if there is a way that I can change the background color to where it would be transparent?

A link to the sample is:

Thanks in advance,

You can change the background color but you can't make it transparent.

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!

and that too only in the applet (ie using java), not using HTML...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull
