My IE does not support Java applet

P

Peter

I am new to web page and am learning Java programming. I have a html with a
Java Applet. But my IE seemed does not support Java Applet. I am doubt of
this.

Window: Win XP
IE: version 6
Here is my html: (It is quite simple.)
<html>
<head>
<title>Watch Applet</title>
</head>
<body>
<applet code="Watch.class" height="50" width="345">
This program requires a Java-enabled browser.
</applet>
</body>
</html>

When I run it locally, I can see the Applet window only without the date and
time, which Watch.class should display.

Many thanks

The Java Virtual machine is no longer part of Windows XP or IE.
Java Virtual Machine can be
downloaded from http://java.sun.com

Thanks. My IE is working fine with Java after downloaded JRE. But
Frontpage is still not working. In Frontpage I can see the applet window
only without the content.

Please further advise.

You need to use File Menu | Preview in Browser.

Thanks. It is working fine now. But it seems Frontpage itself does not
support Java except calling the browser.

Does this mean that visitors to a website will by default
not be able to view stuff that developers have built into
their sites using Java? - I am not clear if the comment
below about downloading Java Virtual machine is for the
developer or also visitors to a site?

thanks

Yes, it means that. It's why most savvy developers wouldn't touch Java with
a 10 foot pole.

Everyone must have it on their pc in order to view java.

JVM is owned by Sun. Microsoft invented its own called .NET CLR. The
concepts are the same but CLR is better than JVM. However, If you wish to
retain Java codes, you may convert your codes using Microsoft .Net J# (Java
sharp, the Microsoft way). Java used to be good, not any more since .Net CLR
was created. I would think seriously before committing to Java.

To run true Sun Java, you must configure your IE security settings to allow
Java (medium at least) to run.

yes it must be downloaded by visitors - it is a client-side technology - it must
reside on the user's computer.
