Applet cant instantiate JNDI initial context

Question

When I use an applet to get an initial context, error is reported as cant find
class javax.naming.InitialContext
Here is a snippet of all the code
-----------applet code -----------
<APPLET code="JNDIApplet.class" width=350 height=200>
<param name="java.naming.factory.initial" value="weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory">
<param name=java.naming.provider.url value="t3://svr_weblogic:7001/">
</APPLET>
----------------error------------------
This is the error i am getting in the init() of applet:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.naming.InitialContext
---------------java code --------------
public void init () {
initComponents();
Context ctx = null;
try {
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.APPLET, this);
System.out.println("here before instantiation");
ctx = new InitialContext(env);
System.out.println("here after instantiation");
System.out.println("Initial context created");
textField1.setText("Initial context created");
}catch (Exception e) {
textField1.setText(e.toString());

Answer 1

I guess, Applet needs javax.naming package in the classpath.
