Applet run in applet viewer but produces error in browser

Question

Dear All,
Rather new in Java developpement, this topic should be peanuts for most of you.
I am using Oracle JDevelopper 11.
I have written a very simple applet which just display a text using the following code:
*public void paint(Graphics g){ g.drawString("I am talking to you !",40,40); }*
The html code calls the applet using the following code:
*<APPLET CODE="project1.Applet1.class" HEIGHT="200" WIDTH="600" ALIGN="bottom">This browser does not support Applets.</APPLET>*
Running the hmtl file in the applet viewer, result is as expected.
But running the html file using the server instance gives an error message which translation to English looks like the following:
Error: click to get more information.
The no java supported text is not displayed.
I have set my browser to the lowest security level in order to check for security matter.
No change.
Browser is IE 8
OS is Windows XP.
Thanks a lot for helping a poor stuck beginner.
Ben

Hi Frank,
Thank you for your help.
I guess something is wrong with Jdeveloper or there is something I don't understand (most likely ;-)).
Please correct me if I am wrong.
The directory structure build by Jdeveloper is the following:
Application name
Project name
classes
project name <<< my class is stored under this folder
public_html
html file calling my applet class
Calling Project1.Applet1 (as given as default when I create a java html file) in the html file give the following error message:
open HTTP connection failed:http://127.0.0.1:7101/Application2-Project1-context-root/Project1/Applet1.class
Calling Applet1 in the html file give the following error message: wrong name for applet Projet/Applet
It does not refer to an http connection problem.
Calling Project1/Applet1 gives the following
HTTP connection failed:http://127.0.0.1:7101/Application2-Project1-context-root/Project1/Applet1.class
So I am really puzzled.
And stucked.
Any hint ?
Ben
