Applet Doesn't Work in IE; Works in Safari

Question

I just finished writing a Java Applet in OS X for use in a web page, and it runs perfectly in Safari, but when I try to get it to run in Internet Explorer, it does nothing, not even when I run it on a PC. Furthermore, I can't seem to get IE to even give me an error log, despite the fact that I specifically told IE to log all errors in Java. Thus, I have no way of knowing what the problem is except by looking at the "Loading Web Page"-type messages shown at the bottom left of IE's window, which change too fast for me to read any of the important error messages. I think I saw it say something about the name of the applet and "not found" a couple times, but I don't see why this would be a problem when Safari easily runs the applet without any problem. Can someone please help me out?

Answer 1

Try to run ControlPanel to enable java console.
Bye.Thanks, this got me a little further along, but, although it still runs perfectly in Safari, in IE for Mac OS X, the applet freezes whenever I refresh the GUI, and in IE for Windows, it's never been anything more than a grey box. I think that this may be a problem relating to the archetypical Swing Lockup from conflicting threads, but when I did what the tutorial said, which was to use the
invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
createAndShowGui();
method, it makes it so that an additional class file pops up after compiling, called EventCalendar$1.class (the applet is called EventCalendar, and EventCalendar.class is also there). When I run the applet like this, it just makes the browser give a "ClassDefNotFound" error for EventCalendar$1.class. I don't know what to do, and I'm running out of time. Please help me out!
