How can an Applet read the used Java Version?

Hi,

according to Java books an applet is alowed to access information about the Java Version (plugin) it is running in. But none of the books I found gave description how to access this information?! The "System.getProperty()" does not work (only on applications).

Does anyone of you know, how to read the Java Version (number) with an applet?

Thank you ...

... Heiko
