Applet question - loading and running

Guest_imported · Nov 10, 2001

I made a very simple applet, just your typical 'HelloWorld' applet. I compiled it into a .class, and used DreamWeaver to make a webpage to run it. I opened the webpage DreamWeaver made, but IE says that it could not find the file. How do I fix this? The .class and the .html are in the same directory.

Your using IE. Don't use IE, it doesn't support Java. Use Netscape 6.0+ or Opera 5.0+ (

http://www.opera.com).

How do other Java applets work in IE then? *looks confused*

All you have to do is to create a simple html page for example

<html>
<body>
<applet code="HelloWorld.class" width="value of your choosing" height="value of your choosing"></applet>
</body>
</html>

This will work no matter what else you put on the page.
I have found that webpage editors try to add a lot of
other stuff that is not needed when embedding an applet,
so I tend to code it myself. Hope this helps!
