What we need to run an applet by IE

[welldefined]

Hi,

I have just learnt how to run an applet by putting <applet code="xxx.class"></applet> in a Html file. So, we need put xxx.class in the server. But do we need to put some dll or anything into the user's PC?

Thank you in advance.

The user needs to have the JRE installed, available from

I see, thank you. So, not many people like the page including an applet?

I think its a matter of personal preference.
Personally, I don't like applets - there is not a lot (for common webapps) you can do in an applet that you cannot do with javascript,css or svg.
