Force Java Applet Reload

I'm trying to test a new version of a java applet. However, from the results I can tell that Safari is using a cached version of the jar file rather than downloading a new one from the website. I have tried emptying the cache, closing and reopening Safari, and reloading. However, I still get the old version. How can I force a reload?

Dear Jason,
Thanks to your help, I try and test and it's really work!!
Today I look deeper to the source code of the web page, it post below, could I also add
-Duser.language=en to the paragraph and get the same result?

  • Applet reload problem

    How can one ensure that an applet re-initialise itself when returning to the applet's page after leaving to other pages.
    I can only force to reload by pressing ctrl and refresh botton on the browser. Is there any tricks that can bypass this procedure and reload the applet automatically when one re-enter the applet's page?
    Thanks for any great suggestion.

    I think that JavaScript can be very useful if you wish to establish communication between your Applet and your browser.
    JavaScript -- > Java communication does not require the use of any particular API
    You just neet to clearly specify the name of your applet like this :
    (I prefer to use OBJECT tag than APPLET... is more generic)
    <OBJECT classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" name="myApplet" width="230" height="360" align="baseline">
    <PARAM name="code" value="myApplet.class">
    <PARAM name="type" value="application/x-java-applet">
    <PARAM name="scriptable" value="true">
    </OBJECT>Check out the scriptable parameter. This is required for Java --> JavaScript communication.
    Now, let's say you want a call a method called setMyAppletName that you have implemented in your applet, you would call it from a JavaScript function like this :
    function callJavaMethod(){
    document.myApplet.setMyAppletName("myApplet");
    }Notice that parameter name in your tag insertion tags should match the name of the applet you're tring to acces in the JavaScript function.
    Java -- > JavaScript communication it's a bit more complicated. It requires the use of netscape libraries that you can find in the following path of your Netscape install :
    [your Program Files directory ]\Netscape\Communicator\Program\java\classes
    There you will need a jar file called java40.jar (this is what I have with Netscape 4.7) where netscape packages are found. After having isntalled this jar in my package directory, this is how I refer to API
    import netscape.javascript.*;
    //Reference to browser window where current applet is embedded
    JSObject jsoWindow = JSObject.getWindow(this);
    //Preparing parameters to be sent to a JavaScript function that is going to be called
    String strHelloMsg = "Hello";
    //Parameters neet to be stored in a String array in order to be passed to JavaScript function
    String[] strArrParams = {strHelloMsg };
    //Init JavaScript function name to be called
    String strFunctionName = "showMessage"
    //Call JavaScript function
    _jsoWindow.call(strFunctionName, strArrParams);In your HTML page you could define such function like this :
    <script>
        function showMessage(strMsg){
                alert(strMsg);      
    </script>That's all the help I can give since I don't know how JavaScript browser events work. You should find it out in the huge amounts of JavaScript tutorial and reference sites.
    Good luck !

  • Problem Launching Java Applet with Plug-in: Version 1.4.2_01

    Hello out there:
    I recently installed j2re-1.4.2_01 on my home computer but have been unable to access Web sites emmploying JAva applets. The following is an email exchange with Jeff Hall of Lowell Observatory, manager of an educational site hosted by Lowell, trying to resolve my problem. The messages are better understood if read in reverse order.
    I'm hoping that someone will recognize the source of my problem and can recommmend a solution. I would appreciate any help offered.
    Thanks,
    Mike Coucke
    Hi Jeff:
    Well, I guess the problem lies with me somewhere. Here's my answer/status to your questions/suggestions:
    1) I'm using MS Windows Me version 4.90.3000
    2) I do have the directory C:\Windows\.jpi_cache\jar\, but the only thing in it is an empty folder labeled "1.0". The file LP.jar does not exist anywhere on my hard drive.
    3) I tried several game sites that utilized Java applets and got the same results: the Java cup in the upper left corner followed a few seconds later by the red "X". So, evidently the problem is somewhere on my end.
    I'm going to post our email exchanges in a Java Users Forum managed by Sun to see if anyone out there can solve my problem. However, if you have any more suggestions, I'll be glad to try them.
    Thanks for the help.

    Mike,
    Rats! What version of Windows are you using? It's a little strange to
    see the user directory set to C:\Windows; if you're using XP, I'd expect
    it to be something like C:\Documents and Settings\Mike Coucke. In any
    event, the output that is of concern is these two lines:
    java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: LPRemote.class
    Caused by: java.net.UnknownHostException: proxy
    It looks like your browser is not finding our server's IP when it comes
    time to download the necessary Java code.
    LPRemote.class is the fundamental code that runs LOPARC, and your
    browser should be downloading it automatically when you click connect.
    LPRemote.class is stored along with a bunch of other classes in a file
    called "LP.jar" that you download from our server. So, if you go to C:
    in Windows Explorer and do a file search for LP.jar, you should find it.
    On my machine, it's stored in a directory called ".jpi_cache\jar\" in my
    user home directory. Let me know if you have this file, or the
    jpi-cache directory.
    One other thing you might try is going to a different site that you know
    uses Java applets -- I think some of the online game rooms at Yahoo use
    Java. See if other sites that use Java load correctly. Then we'll know
    if it's our server specifically, or a more general problem on your end.

    Hello Jeff:
    I still have the Java "blues". I followed your instructions, but am still unable to launch a LOPARC session. After an initial failure, I uninstalled all three Java versions I had (1.4.0, 1.4.1, 1.4.2), then reinstalled 1.4.2_01 from the Sun website.
    Now, when I try to launch LOPARC, I initially get a blank window with the Java cup in the upper left corner. After about 20 seconds, the cup changes to a red "X". During those 20 seconds, the following appear in the IE message bar at the bottom of the window: "Applet LPRemote notinited" (their spelling) which changes to "Loading Java Applet Failed..." when the red "X" appears.
    Following is a copy of the log from my Java Console during all of this:

    Hi Mike,
    Try it now. I think this problem has arisen because Sun just
    released a new version of the Plug-in (1.4.2), and when we released the
    public beta of LOPARC, only one relevant version (1.4.0) was available
    and the LOPARC code was written to look for that by default. I have
    just recoded the relevant routines so they should now cause your browser
    to simply pick up the latest 1.4 version of the Plug-in you have
    installed, whatever it is. I "broke" Java on my machine to replicate
    your problem, and the code I inserted today did fix it. Hopefully it
    will have the same effect for you. I am running IE 6 and plugin
    1.4.2_01 (as accessed via Tools->Sun Java Console).
    One broader problem: some (non-LOPARC-specific) users on the Sun
    forums have reported the "JRE collision" you are seeing when multiple
    versions of the Plug-in are installed on the same machine. So if the
    fix I made to our code doesn't work, one option would be to uninstall
    all Java components from your computer and do a fresh install of the
    latest runtime environment.
    Let me know how/if this works. Thanks for the feedback and for your
    patience.
    Best regards,

    So far, I have been unable to launch a LOPARC session. I repeatedly

    "Exception: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: LPRemote.class"
    My browser is MS Internet Explorer version 6.0.2800.1106 Initially I was

    Before I try to launch LOPARC, I can select Tools->Sun Java Console from
    IE's pull down menu to check my Java Plug-In version. When I try to
    launch LOPARC, I get the following message:
    "Applet(s) in this HTML page requires a version of Java different from

    supercomputer to use it. All pages are viewable on screens running at
    800x600 resolution or higher. To use LOPARC, you'll need a Java-enabled
    browser with the Java 1.4 plug-in installed. If you don't have the
    plug-in, you'll be prompted to download it the first time you attempt to
    connect. This is an admittedly large (9 MB) but one-time-only download.
    This site works correctly under Internet Explorer version 5 or higher.
    If you use Netscape, you must be running version 6 or higher, and
    display or applet behavior anomalies may occur.
    If at any time you can't connect to our server, simply try again later.
    We do experience several power outages each year, particularly during
    Flagstaff's summer thunderstorm season. Our server is fully protected
    and backed up, and can be quickly brought back on line, but any active
    user sessions will be lost. Thanks for your patience during these
    inevitable downtimes.
    Your questions, comments, suggestions, and bug reports about this site
    are always welcome. On behalf of the LOPARC development team, thanks
    for signing up!

    Hi Mike,
    I see this in your logs:
    Java(TM) Plug-in: Version 1.4.2_01
    Using JRE version 1.4.2_01 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
    User home directory = C:\WINDOWS
    Proxy Configuration: Manual Configuration
    Proxy: http=proxy,https=proxy,ftp=proxy,gopher=proxy
    Proxy Overrides:
    I just helped my Dad set up his computer with a new
    cable modem, and had the situation where we couldn't
    access any secure Web sites. The cable folks had us
    disable the proxy. It looks like the error message is
    saying it can't find your proxy server, and the logs
    you posted say that you've decided to configure your
    proxy manually, rather than using the settings from
    IE (which is how mine is set up in the plugin
    control panel.)
    Could that be the problem?

  • COMMUNICATION BETWEEN JAVASCRIPT AND JAVA APPLET: US$20 AWARD FOR SOLUTION!

    COMMUNICATION BETWEEN JAVASCRIPT AND JAVA APPLET PROBLEM (Easy Filter Java Applet) -
    US$20 TO ANYONE WHO CAN RESOLVE THE PROBLEM
    To forum visitors:
    I am prepared to pay a standard shareware fee of US$20 to a user who can resolve this technical problem.
    If your advice resolves the problem, I'll forward the payment to your postal address (include your
    address with your reply, and also your email address)
    I am attempting to enable a HTML button (using Javascript's onClick command) to directly input a number into one of the parameter text boxes in the Easy Filter Java applet (ie, enter a new color value number in the text field of the standard Colors Multiplicator Filter interface).
    The applet is Freeware and can be downloaded at: http://www.javazoom.net/applets/easyfilter10/EasyFilter10.html
    (It is a very effective bitmap display and editing utility)
    To achieve this, I am trying to access the part of the applet that defines and sets the textbox. The text box is defined in the .class file by accessing the parameter details in the genericfilter.txt file (accompanies the .class files). I need to access 'private String appletInitialize()' and then one of the 'textFieldParameters' which sets the textbox.
    I understand the basic syntax for referencing the applet:
    document.appletname.setString("An example"). However, accessing the text fields in this applet is more complex!!
    Please can you recommend the correct Javascript syntax to achieve communication with the applet.
    Thank you for your kind assistance.

  • Java Applet in a HTML page: failing with PLS-00306: wrong number of args

    We are trying to use a Java Applet in a HTML page. as our system needs to be able to retrieve a predefined set of data from a third party system that uses Dynamic Data Exchange Protocol (DDE) and are encountering errors from APEX and in IE itself.
    We are using JavaDde from www.nevaobject.com that enables our Java applet to interact with Windows applications (Third Party System) using DDE.
    This functionality is currently used in our Web Form 6i application and we are trying to use the same in the new ApEx application.
    We are using ApEx version : 2.1 and actually aer encountering 2 problems:
    Problem 1: ApEx failing with PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'ACCEPT'
    Problem 2: IE crashes if Applet used in a complex page with several regions (1 Context, 4 Report Regions, 2 level Tabs, Links)
    This problem does not occur in the page where there is only applet and one region. In the case of complex page the IE crashes if the page is reloaded
    Test scenario:
    1- Create a simple page with the HTML region.
    2- Define the Source of the above region as follows
    <OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"
    CODEBASE="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4-windows-i586.cab#version=1,4,0,0"
    WIDTH="1"
    HEIGHT="1"
    ID="simpleApplet"
    NAME="simpleApplet">
    <PARAM NAME="code" VALUE="simpleApplet.class" >
    <PARAM NAME="archive" VALUE="simpleApplet.jar" />
    <PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="application/x-java-applet;version=1.4">
    </OBJECT>
    3- Create a simple Java applet "simpleApplet" - for the test its enough if the applet will have just the init method printing out the mesage to the console
    4- Create a Submit Button (not redirect) in Region Header and create unconditional (do not set When Button Pressed property) Page Branch to navigate to another page (the page without the applet)
    6- Run the page and Submit -
    The error below is returned by the engine:
    In our case our applet is called ddeApplet - I do not know why is ApEx passing the Applet's ID down to the wwv_flow.accept method as a parameter

  • Java Applet IIOP Call-In with Release 3C--How do we speed updownload ti

    We have successfully implemented a simple Java Applet that calls into
    Forte Services via IIOP. However, the duration of the download time for
    Applet and its required class files is UNACCEPTABLE in a typical
    INTERNET environment where 28.8K modems and multiple hops around the net
    are not uncommon. We dialed into our network at 28.8K (but no hopping),
    and found that download times varied from 1.5 - 2.0 minutes. This is
    unacceptable, even by internet standards. We have been using the
    Visigenic Visibroker product as the ORB.
    After doing some investigation, we've come up with several ideas to
    speed up download time:
    1. Figure out how to use the Visigenic components (CORBA/IIOP class
    files) that come bundled with the latest version of the Netscape
    Navigator browser, so that they don't have to be downloaded
    2. Figure out how to use ZIP files. Here's what I've read: "Since the
    introduction of Netscape Navigator 3.0, you can specify an uncompressed
    .zip file as an addition to the code base of your application. By
    specifying a ZIP file, the browser will load your applet's classes from
    a specified ZIP file before it searches the code base. This ZIP can
    improve applet download time by reducing the number of HTTP connections
    required to fetch applet code. As an added benefit, Netscape caches the
    single ZIP file so that it will not reload your applet unless the date
    of the ZIP file has changed."
    3. Figure out how to use JAR files. Here's what I've read: "JAR
    stands for Java archive. It's a file format based on the popular ZIP
    file format and is used for aggregating many files into one. Although
    JAR can be used as a general archiving tool, the primary motivation for
    its development was so that Java applets and their requisite components
    can be downloaded to a browser in a single HTTP transaction, rather than
    opening a new connection for each piece. This greatly improves the
    speed with which an applet can be loaded onto a web page and begin
    functioning. The JAR format also supports compression, which reduces the
    size of the file and improves download time still further."
    Unfortunately, we've been unable to get any of these approaches to work.
    Has any one used these or other approaches to speed up applet download
    time? Or, does anyone know of consulting firms that specialize in this
    sort of thing?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Java Applets in Safari

    I'm trying to run a Java applet with safari, but everytime I go to the webpage all I get is a grey box with a picture of a coffee cup that has two arrows circling it. Nothing loads after that. Any idea how to fix this?

    Hi ad1054,
    Are you sure you have java 1.6 and if so, how did you get it? I believe the latest version available from apple is 1.5.0_06. Java 1.6 was only just released by Sun, and, if I'm not mistaken, only for PC and Linux. Apple may be waiting to force people to pay for Leopard to get Java 1.6. (Though you can get a beta version from developer.apple.com.) As Hawaiian_Starman mentioned above, you can check your java version.
    That said, you don't have to worry about lower versions of Java because Java is backwards compatible. In fact, if you use Firefox (sorry, but I just checked it in Safari, and got a blank page so I guess Safari, like IE, doesn't support this) and go to "about:plugins" you will see something like
    <pre>

    </pre>
    You can see from this list that all versions up to and including the currently installed one are supported. The only thing you have to fear is that the applet you are trying to use was compiled with Java 1.6 and is not itself backwards compatible. However, when I made a test applet of this type, I got a red X, and no coffee cup.
    If you see the red X, and I think the coffee cup as well, you should be able to right-click (or ctrl-click) the icon. If so, this will give you a menu with "console" and "about" choices. "About" will give you the version of Java you have, and "console" is supposed to show you the errors that kept the applet from working. (However, with my Java 1.6 test, the console was empty.)
    I hope this helps.

  • Re: [Fwd: Java Applet IIOP Call-In with Release 3C--How dowe speed up d

    Hi Michael,
    We have done exactly what you describe and have avoided the slow applet
    download times. Although it can be a bit tricky, it is possible to use
    the ORB bundled inside the Netscape 4.0 browser (Visibroker for Java by
    Visigenic). Most of the code should follow Netscape's examples (on
    http://developer.netscape.com)--just remember to initialize the ORB by
    passing a reference to the current applet in orb_init() (so that you
    invoke something like orb_init(this) [assuming you are extending
    java.applet.Applet]). Pulling up the Java console within your web
    browser should help debug quite a bit (a lot of debug messages will get
    printed there the ORB is having problems).
    Netscape has just implemented the applet caching schemes you describe,
    so it probably shouldn't matter too much if you use another vendor's
    ORB (we've done this with Iona's OrbixWeb). If you use ZIP files, they
    have to be uncompressed, and I don't think that the browser will cache
    them between browser sessions. Netscape 4.0 does seem to handle
    compressed JAR files just fine and it does indeed cache them between
    browser sessions. I'd go with the JAR format anyway since the ZIP
    bundling was just a workaround until Sun got their act together in the
    1.1 JDK.
    By the way, you also might want to take advantage of the code-signing
    and capabilities APIs of Netscape if you are going to invoke methods on
    objects not resident on your web server. Otherwise, you will probably
    run into the (in)famous browser applet security restrictions and you may
    have other problems doing things like callbacks from Forte, etc.
    If you want more detail on how it works, let me know and I can post some
    examples.
    Oh, one last thing: we are a consulting firm specializing in these kinds
    of things :)

    We have successfully implemented a simple Java Applet that calls into
    Forte Services via IIOP. However, the duration of the download time
    for
    Applet and its required class files is UNACCEPTABLE in a typical
    INTERNET environment where 28.8K modems and multiple hops around the
    net
    are not uncommon. We dialed into our network at 28.8K (but no
    hopping),
    and found that download times varied from 1.5 - 2.0 minutes. This is
    unacceptable, even by internet standards. We have been using the
    Visigenic Visibroker product as the ORB.
    After doing some investigation, we've come up with several ideas to
    speed up download time:
    1. Figure out how to use the Visigenic components (CORBA/IIOP class
    files) that come bundled with the latest version of the Netscape
    Navigator browser, so that they don't have to be downloaded
    2. Figure out how to use ZIP files. Here's what I've read: "Since
    the
    introduction of Netscape Navigator 3.0, you can specify an
    uncompressed
    .zip file as an addition to the code base of your application. By
    specifying a ZIP file, the browser will load your applet's classes
    from
    a specified ZIP file before it searches the code base. This ZIP can
    improve applet download time by reducing the number of HTTP
    connections
    required to fetch applet code. As an added benefit, Netscape caches
    the
    single ZIP file so that it will not reload your applet unless the date
    of the ZIP file has changed."
    3. Figure out how to use JAR files. Here's what I've read: "JAR
    stands for Java archive. It's a file format based on the popular ZIP
    file format and is used for aggregating many files into one. Although
    JAR can be used as a general archiving tool, the primary motivation
    for
    its development was so that Java applets and their requisite
    components
    can be downloaded to a browser in a single HTTP transaction, rather
    than
    opening a new connection for each piece. This greatly improves the
    speed with which an applet can be loaded onto a web page and begin
    functioning. The JAR format also supports compression, which reduces
    the
    size of the file and improves download time still further."
    Unfortunately, we've been unable to get any of these approaches to
    work.
    Has any one used these or other approaches to speed up applet
    download
    time? Or, does anyone know of consulting firms that specialize in
    this
    sort of thing?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Michael,
    We have done exactly what you describe and have avoided the slow applet
    download times. Although it can be a bit tricky, it is possible to use
    the ORB bundled inside the Netscape 4.0 browser (Visibroker for Java by
    Visigenic). Most of the code should follow Netscape's examples (on
    http://developer.netscape.com)--just remember to initialize the ORB by
    passing a reference to the current applet in orb_init() (so that you
    invoke something like orb_init(this) [assuming you are extending
    java.applet.Applet]). Pulling up the Java console within your web
    browser should help debug quite a bit (a lot of debug messages will get
    printed there the ORB is having problems).
    Netscape has just implemented the applet caching schemes you describe,
    so it probably shouldn't matter too much if you use another vendor's
    ORB (we've done this with Iona's OrbixWeb). If you use ZIP files, they
    have to be uncompressed, and I don't think that the browser will cache
    them between browser sessions. Netscape 4.0 does seem to handle
    compressed JAR files just fine and it does indeed cache them between
    browser sessions. I'd go with the JAR format anyway since the ZIP
    bundling was just a workaround until Sun got their act together in the
    1.1 JDK.
    By the way, you also might want to take advantage of the code-signing
    and capabilities APIs of Netscape if you are going to invoke methods on
    objects not resident on your web server. Otherwise, you will probably
    run into the (in)famous browser applet security restrictions and you may
    have other problems doing things like callbacks from Forte, etc.
    If you want more detail on how it works, let me know and I can post some
    examples.
    Oh, one last thing: we are a consulting firm specializing in these kinds
    of things :)

  • Safari 6.0.4 - java applet keeps running when not in use?

    Mac OS X 10.7.5
    Safari 6.0.4
    all the latest updates (software) as of 4/27/13
    Oracle's Java r 21 also installed (latest)
    website: http://javatester.org/version.html
    NOTE: I have seen this on more than 1 computer that the 1st time running the Java applet (after clicking on the plugin missing placeholder, the app appears to begin loading, but 'hangs' as far as UI is concerned, although it is using CPU and accessing the disk the whole time.
    Refreshing the page then allows you to see the Oracle java version displayed in the pink box
    However, what I notice is that if you enter a new URL and go there, blowing away the Java applet page, guess what's still running in the background (via Activity Monitor) "Java Applet - javatester.org", occupying memory and using some small CPU.
    this seems like ridiculously bad behavior in general. Has anyone else seen similar issues? is this related to an outstanding memory leak (bigger problem) in Safari? Any way to get java to behave if you aren't possibly using an applet?
    could it be lazy cleanup/garbage collection in Safari? meaning it might vanish from the process list at some indeterminate point in the future? closing the tab it was running on (before a new URL was loaded) outright doesn't seem to kill it.

    I have not used Onyx recently, although i use a number of other utils, and reset safari periodically.
    It seems that it may be a delayed garbage collection issue. If I leave it for a bit and then come back it seems that the process is disappearing. If I can isolate anything more reliably I'll post again, but for now I'm going to stop worrying about it.
    It was lingering long enough I thought maybe was a leak, but i guess I'm just not patient enough...
    Also, I haven't reliably reproduced the high CPU cycle / hung applet condition on the 1st load. that may be something that shouldn't be going on (regarding the new security around java probably) but low pain point once I reload the page and tell safari to let the app run all the time.
    so just to recap
    - looks like the applet persistence in the process table is a delayed disposal issue that eventually gets done
    - hanging applet on 1st load post security patch may be something, but hitting cmd-R is a lot more satisfying than devoting a lot of time to tracking that down right now
    thanks for your suggestion

  • Proxy Login Request on Java applets

    • 10.4.5 Client
    • Windows 2.3k ISA 2005 Proxy Server
    • Users' fileserving to Win2.3k - ADmitMac for AD integration
    The client is a test machine on which I build campus master NetInstall images. In my testing procedures I've come across a bizarre problem with Java in the browsers (IE, Safari, & FireFox).
    We use ISA proxy server with web filtering, and users must authenticate to the proxy. On a new user's first use of any browser, the proxy username & password are requested, and the Add to Keychain checkbox is available. If the user checks the box, no further proxy login requests are made; the user's Keychain is updated with the proxy information.
    On pages with Java applets, however, each and every applet will ask for a proxy login, but the login window does not offer a Add to Keychain checkbox! If a page has 15 applets on it, the user will be asked 15 times to authenticate against the proxy.
    Naturally, this is a BIG problem, especially when several of the sites our teachers use in classes and labs contain many Java applets.
    On the web, there is almost nothing concerning setting up Java with proxy servers, as all Apple Java from v. 1.4.2 onwards picks up proxy information from the system's network settings.
    On the Apple Developer site, Tech Note QA1263 demonstrates a way of setting HTTPS proxy settings by entering text strings in the 1.3.1 and 1.4.1 Plugin Settings apps Java Runtime Parameters. The same capability exists in the J2SE 5.0 Java Preferences app, too. Unfortunately, the Java applets do not use HTTPS, so far as I can tell, so this remedy is useless.
    Any clues I can pursue? Any help or fixes?
    Thanks in advance!

    After some more research with the J2SE 5.0 Java Preferences app, I turned on the Java console, booted Safari and went to my favorite Java applet - babynamewizard. This is the output of the console log. From what I can glean, the plug-in sees the proxy server settings as it should, and reports them.
    In addition, the J2SE 5.0 Java Preferences app allows you to turn off all security settings. No change in behavior.

  • Java Applet

    Very simple question here. Im very frustrated with this simple java applet right now. Will this applet at this URL display for anyone?? http://www.everythingsgood.com/Computer/IntegerCalculatorGUI.html I have been reading Java applet tutorial sites for the past 6 hours and all of them tell me the same thing. All I need is this tag
    <APPLET height="150" alt="Browser has Java disabled" hspace="150" width="450" code="IntegerCalculatorGUI.class"></applet>
    along with having the .html file in the same directory as the java.class. I have done everything excalty as described by many people and this thing still pulls up a empty box with a red X in it. What am I doing wrong? Anyone have any ideas. This is really frustrating since im 99% positive the html tag is perfect. If you want to view the calculator applet code here it is http://www.everythingsgood.com/Computer/classes.rar I have also tried to use a .jar but with no effect as well.
