Swing applet view problem in IE

Hi,
I am new to Java and have to develop a web enabled tool where the servlets in my Solaris-Tomcat web server is manipulating with data in an oracle database. The client code is on Swing Applet, which is to be opened in Internet Explorer 5.5 from Windows NT platform.
In view of this, I have written a small swing applet and it is not opening in IE. I heard that I need to use HTML converter to run Swing applets in IE. But, Is it enough to download the HTML converter for Solaris and install it in the server and convert the html pages where <applet> tag is included? Or , do I need to install the HTML converter for windows to all the client machines?
Please help. This is very urgent.
Thanks in adance.

You can use this html code :
<html>
     <body>
          <OBJECT classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" WIDTH = 695 HEIGHT = 525 codebase="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.3/jinstall-13-win32.cab#Version=1,3,0,0">
               <PARAM NAME = CODE VALUE = MyApplet >
               <PARAM NAME = CODEBASE VALUE = "." >
               <PARAM NAME = ARCHIVE VALUE = "MyApplet.jar" >
               <PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="application/x-java-applet;version=1.3">
               <PARAM NAME="scriptable" VALUE="false">
          </OBJECT>
     </body>
</html>
replacing only the dimension, the code value and removing or modifying archive value.
Don't modiy the classid. This code indicates to the browser to use the Sun Java VM instead of its own vm.
I hope this helps,

Bad Applet Viewing Problem

I have tried this with the recent versions of the Runtime Environment 1.4.2 and 1.5.0 Beta 2 and I get slightly different, but the same problem.
When I try to view an applet in a web page with 1.4.2, it looks for jvm.dll in \bin\hotspot\ when it's usually in \bin\client\
When I try to view an applet in a web page with 1.5.0, it looks for jvm.dll in \bin\server\when it's usually in \bin\client\
and the thing is, those directories don't even exist.
I've searched the knowledge base and found this problem 3 times but it says they fixed. Help?

I just fixed mt problem, here's how i did it:
I installed a fresh copy of the 1.4.2 Runtime and restarted my computer
Then I opened Internet Explorer and went to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced to make sure the checkbox under Sun Java for the <Applet> tag was checked
then I went to Tools > Sun Java Console and did the following things, I do not remember which ones affected it but I have a good hunch which one probably made it work:
I switched the radio button to "Show the Console"
I disabled Cahcing files
And changed the Java Directory from default to the install directory like C:\Java\jre1.4.2\
I think chnaging the directory made the biggest difference. But one problem I was making when I was continously reinstalling and unistalling was every time I did that, I did restart to have the changes take effect.

Swing applet refresh problem in JRE1.6

Now , i met a problean in java swing project which troubled me for a long time, that i want to ask for some suggestions, I really very very thank you.
The problean is :
we use the swing in the applet , and run it with JRE 1.6, we find that the interface often disappear and appears blank when refresh the page , but when we use the mouse to over the control which in the interface ,then this control will appear . Then we try to reduce some not used codes/packets in this project , then we find that this phenomenon will appear less often.
This defect will not appear in JRE 1.4 and JRE 1.5. And also it will not appear when just run it as a desktop program.
I don't know if it is a bug in JRE 1.6 or it is due to our program. Can you give me some suggestions ? Thank you!
More information like following document :
=================================================================================================
2, Problem happen condition :
     Applet with swing;
     Run in JRE1.6 environment;
     Open or refresh the applet web page;
     IE, Netscape, Mozilla , almost all explorers.
3, Problean describe :
     Open the Start.html page and click the �Pre-Provisioning Tool� button to open the PPT.html page. There is a configuration applet which uses swing in the PPT page. When we open or refresh this page , the applet often disappear and show blank. And when we move the mouse over the position of the control which in the applet , these controls then will appear again. But if we use the buttons which in the applet to open and back to the applet tab page, it will not show blank.
     At last we find that this problem is a very common problem when run applet in JRE1.6. It may happen whenever you run the applet which uses swing controls in JRE1.6.
     And I find that we use �Ctrl + Alt + Del� to lock the computer and then login in again when the page is blank, then the page will turn ok and the applet will appear.
     This prolem just happen in JRE1.6 environment . If in JRE1.4 or 1.5 it performes good.
4, What cause this issue :
     Until now , we have no successful and perfect solution to solve this problem completely. And we still don�t know the real reasons that causes this issue.. We find that there are some people in internet also met this issue and has no solution.
     But we can give some options to try to find the real reasons. And we also have been try some time :
It may a bug for JRE1.6. We can sure that it is not a bug for explorers, because it happens the same in all explorers. If it�s a JRE bug , I think we can only to waite the newer version JRE to solve this issue.
It due to our program. If this is true, I think we may modify the program to solve this sssue. But I�m afraid that it may need us to modify too much.
5, What works we have been try :
5.2 For our program : We try such ways :
     1) If the project too big and too much to download : We remove the not needed modules that in TCOTool project. .
     Result : This problem happened less often
     2) If some methods are not compatible between JRE 1.4/1.5 and JRE1.6 : I try to modify these method to fit JRE1.6 and compile the project by jDK1.6. (Methed such as show() to setVisible(true), hidden() to setVisible(false) )
     result : This problem happened less often but it�s also will happen.
     3) If operator too much when open PPT/SUT : such as load xml file too much times and so on.

Welcome you to send mail to [email protected]

I will start by stating that I really have no idea what the problem could be. I will add to that by stating that I am going way out on a limb here.
That said - have you checked all your browser settings, cleared your cache and all the other things one usually does when an Applet acts quirky?
Also, have you tried the Applet tag instead of Object just for a test?
Sorry I can't do better than that, but w/o seeing the code, it's going to be difficult for anyone to help I think unless they have had a similar problem.

private Vector getDBDatum() {
// fetches datum from oracle database and stores it in a vector
return lvecData;
}//end of getDBDatum()
}//end of class
in index.jsp page i have included the following code for calling this applet:
<jsp:plugin type="applet" code="NewJApplet.class" codebase="applets"
width="600" height="300">
<jsp:fallback>Could not load applet...</jsp:fallback>
</jsp:plugin>
if i view it in using AppletViewer it runs perfectly and display the data in JLabel. (ie, both jlblTitle and jlblNewTitle).(ie, DATA FETCHES FROM db AND DISPLAYS PROPERLY)
BUT IF I CLICK ON INDEX.JSP, ONLY jlblTitle APPEARS. jlblnNewTitle WILL BE BLANK(this label name is supposed to fetch from database)
EVERY THING IS DISPAYING PROPERLY EXCEPT DATA FROM DATABASE!!!
i signed the applet as follows :
grant {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
Can any body help me to figure out the problem?

               width="600" height="300">
     <jsp:fallback>Could not load applet...</jsp:fallback>
</jsp:plugin>Every thing is working fine in AppletViewer...But if i view this in any browser, then only the jlblTitle is displaying. jlblNewTitle is not displaying(this label name is actually fetching from thedatabase)
can any body help me regarding this matter.? Thx in Advance.

Swing applet looks different in browser than in applet viewer

I'm developing an applet using Net Beans 5.0. When I run the applet in the applet viewer I get a totally different look and feel than when I run the applet in a web broser. The background colors are different, the buttons are a totally different style and color, and some buttons that show up essentially transparent in the applet viewer are totally opaque in the browser.
The applet viewer is the one that looks like the interface that I designed in the Net Beans GUI builder, so can anyone tell me how I make it look the same in a Web Browser?

It looks like you're right, so how do I ensure that
my applet will look the same on different versions of
JVM? There's got to be a way, right??yes. you should look into javas pluggable look and feel system.
the cross-platform (java) look and feel changed dramatically between versions 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5.
however, if you use another look and feel, such as motif, or perhaps your system's look and feel (windows, mac, etc), the program should look pretty much the same (perhaps a little different, but not like the differences in the Java look and feel).
if you want to be COMPLETELY sure that they will always look the same, select a third party look and feel that comes packaged in a jar file that you are free to distribute with your applet.
Some good third party look and feels are JGoodies Plastic, and Incors Alloy. And there are others.
if you use one of those, it should look pretty well the same on all platforms, and in all JVM's.

Java Swing Applets in Mac Os

hi there,
I am a student at the University of Portsmouth in the UK in my third and last year. I am doing my dissertation as a game using applets for a client at the university of which there consits four prototypes. One of the main specification points is that it should work on an apple mac, therefore I am using Swing applets. however with my first prototype it works fine on windows in windows Explorer, firefox and Netscape but i cant get it to work on Mac os 9 or X even with the latest version of java installed on the machine. Can anyone tell me why this is so, I would be very gratefull.
As I cant post the whole applet here as a file download I will just put some code snippets of the main program classes.

This link states Mac OS X 10.4 now supports Java 5.0. It does mention nothing about Mac OS 9 or previous version of OS X. The problem you may be facing is that your Mac is running only 1.4.2 or less. The class files compiled for Java 5.0 can't run in non 5.0 versions of the Java Virtual Machine. Java 5.0 was a major release for the Java language and thus the change in numbering (though it took a little bit for this to change).
Anyway you should confirm what version of Java you have installed on your Mac.
At a command prompt:
java -version
The above URL states that the previous 1.4.2 Java version is not uninstalled, and this could still be the preferred version to use for Java applications even after installing Java 5.0.
The URL above states there is a utility to set your apps to use Java 5.0 as the perferred Java version. Who knows maybe this is all you need to do. I hope this is the case, then it probably is an easy fix, otherwise you may need to rewrite your app in Java 1.4.2 to get it to run on your version of Mac.

How use system.out.println with a Java Swing Applet?

Hi guys,
I was just wondering what can I use to view output on the Java console with a Java Swing Applet?
At the moment I'm using a JTextArea within the Applet for debugging but I want output to appear in the browser java console but system.out.println doesn't work.
I'm viewing the Swing Applet on Netscape 4.7 browser.
Any ideas?

System.out.println()s work fine! I'm guessing that your problem is that you are looking at the wrong console window!
You're using the Java Plug-in, right? On Windows, go to your Control Panel and double click "Java Plug-in". You should find a checkbox option to "Show Java Console" - make sure this is checked. Next time you fire up you JApplet, you should see a Java Console window popup.
Hope this helps!

Oracle JDBC and Swing Applets

Hi
I'm trying yo connect to an oracle databse using the oracle thin driver
in a Swing Applet deriving from JApplet class using a JTable .
Note my browser is Swing enabled and i can view normal swing applets.
But i get an error which says
Oracle/jdbc/driver/oracel/driver not found
But if i run this as an application instead of a swing applet it works
Remember it's a Swing Applet not a normal Applet.and the oracle driver works in a normal application.this error occurs only when the oracle driver is used in a Swing Applet.
any ideas?

I re-read your problem , your problem is as same as me.
So, unzip classes12.zip oy folder /htdocs/ on your server
, when this file is unziped it will create the necessary
folders and files so your program will find the drivers
classes and I think your problem is solved.
Thanks Jamanir

Unable to download images in a swing applet (1.3.1) behind proxy

Hi
One of my client have a proxy server and firewall and when they try to access my webserver
then all the AWT applet are downloaded and rendered on client properly. However, the swing applet written
using JDK 1.3.1 is downloaded and rendered but it doesn't display anything properly as images
are not down loaded. I have used media tracker to add images to it like oMediaTracker.addImage( oImage, index );
and then oMediaTracker.waitForAll();
Java console display at client looks as follows:

Client machine tries to access these images but i never receive a call at web server end when i see
IIS log.
CLient environment:
-Windows 2000/XP/NT
-Internet explorer 6.0 SP1 or IE 5.5 SP2
with connection->LAN Setting->Use Automatic configuration script(only checked)
-Java Plugin configured like proxies->Use Browser Setting
-JDK 1.3.1 plug in at client(downloaded and Installed automatically on demand)
-Object tag used to download applet and plugin
-Firewall and proxy(i don't know about vendor)
My webserver environment
Windows 2000/iis 5.0 with anonymous authentication and
cache-control header set to no-store (so that proxy doesn't cache anything)
QUESTIONS:
~~~~~~~~~
Q.1. When i try from home network that has a proxy then everything works fine. At client site everything except
image download works fine. I mean jars are downloaded and i can see anything drawn using JAVA API.
When i try from home i see following java console trace

etc
I can't set the plugin at client to use automatic script just like IE browser uses. This option is not supported in JRE1.3.1. Looks to be supported in JRE1.4.1. My client doesn't want to set manual proxy ip and port in plugin as they don't want to reveal this info to everyone within the company for security reason.
Q.2. Why some classes like PanelBeanInfo.class, JAppletBeanInfo.class are downloaded
from my server while it doesn't exist at my webserver. Any thing stupid IE or plugin doing
at client. Any Idea?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks to Mike and other friends who already replied on this topic.
Here is my research analysis:
Answer to Question 1:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The solution is to bundle all the images with JAR. Bundle with jar whichever needs it. However, it might require duplicacy.
Image img = null;
try
img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(getClass().getResource(fileName));
catch (Exception e) { }
In this case make sure that you have image at the same location where you access it. For example if you have to access an image in package class com.awt.ui.MyClass then your image should also be at location ..\com\awt\ui
Note: It will require image duplicacy in your JAR but it solves the problem. It gives the advantage of fewer download from server.
Answer to Question 2:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IE treats applet as an active-X and try to look for these classes in your JAR. SUN has stopped its support in JDK1.3.1 and plus. What one can do is to create dummy classes with these names and bundle it with your JAR. You have to create these dummy classes if you enable Basic authentication on your web server then browser will try to look for these classes on the server and continue to prompt you for login and password. It might bother your customer un-necessarily to enter login and password too many times prompted by plug-in (plug in).

AccessControlException when run in IE or Safari, but not Applet Viewer

My applet requires the use of a txt file as input. The txt file need only be read, and is always in the same directory as the class files and the web page the applet's running in. For a while now, there have been no problems with reading the txt file; however, recently, I've been getting a "java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission *insert filename here* read)" error. Furthermore, this error only comes up when I run the applet in Internet Explorer or Safari; when I run it in the applet viewer, it works perfectly. On top of this, when I went to the tutorial suspecting that the problem had something to do with thread management, I noticed that all three of the applets on page http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/threads/index.html of the tutorial generated errors, which may or may not indicate that the problem lies in my browsers; frankly, I'm not sure. Any help that you people can give me would be greatly appreciated!

Applets can not read from the filesystem unless you set up policy or sign the applet (or both)

If you applet needs to read a file that is in the same location as the html file and applet why not use the
URL object?

Works in applet viewer but not in internet explorer

I origionaly posted this on devshed. I got 55 views but no replies. It seems to be a common problem to which no one knows the answer. Surprise me :O)I'm sure this is a really common but there seems to be surprisinly litttle on the web about it.
I developed a game applet a while ago in applet viewer and am now thinking about putting it on my web site. However I have found that it doesn't work in internet explorer. I can browse other sites using Java fine. There is clearly just something about my applet that ie doesn't like.
Does anyone have any suggestions? What sort of things upset ie?
All help very much apreciated, you are very nice people
Flo.

There must be some thing that tells you it isn't working. You should tell us so we don't have to guess. Does the browser hang? Do you get an error? Did you try opening the Java Console to see if there were any messages? I am guessing that your code is using something that the security level of an Applet does not allow (but appletviewer does allow).

Applet works on applet viewer but not in html, why not?

I'm using Eclipse as a development system and the Eclipse applet viewer shows my applets with no problem. They work the way I expect them to work and all is well.
When I try to run them in Internet Explorer, I first get a security warning. OK, I trust myself, so I tell Internet Explorer to run the applet. All I get is the text "Hello Dolly", but the applet doesn't run.
I tried refreshing it, running it again, allowing popups and opening the file, but it just won't run. What could be wrong with something so trivial?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Sorry, I didn't think there was anything special in the applet.
This just happens to be what I'm checking at the moment.
It has changed depending upon where in the tutorial I find myself.
Thanks for you help.
It has to be something really stupid that I'm missing, but since I'm still new at this game, I can miss something obvious to everyone else.
