Applets and Netscape 6!
Hi there,
I am not sure if this is the right forum to post my question. However, i saw some discussions reg. Applets on Netscape 6 and i guess that many of you might be familiar with the scenario.
I'm having trouble getting any applets to work on Netscape 6 when I have HTTP authentication on the webserver enabled. The applet works fine under normal circumstances.
Instead of loading the applet, I get a Java dialog box saying "Enter Network Password" and asks me to enter my username/password. This is a specific Java dialog box, complete with a picture of Duke, and it
gives my firewall, digest and realm information.
However, the dialog box doesn't accept my username/password, and doesn't
display my applet.
Here is what i captured on the Java console:
