Installation of Java PlugIn 1.3.0

because i want to run a self-signed applet without manually installation of the certificate i have to use PlugIn 1.3.0. i use internet explorer 5.5 on windows nt. when i put the link to the PlugIn 1.3.0 the browser couldn't interpret the object tag. i only get the default message (applet couldn't be displayed). the object tag i use looks like the following:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"

width=300 height=200 align="baseline"

codebase="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.3.0/jinstall-1_3_0-win.cab#Version=1,3,0,0">

<PARAM NAME="code" VALUE="test.techview.applets.SignedApplet.MyApplet.class">

<PARAM NAME="archive" VALUE="test/techview/applets/SignedApplet/MyApplet.jar">

<PARAM NAME="codebase" VALUE="../../../bin/">

<PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="application/x-java-applet;version=1.3.0">

applet couldn't be displayed

</OBJECT>

whats wrong at this?

The archive probably isn't in the same path as the class file. You need to specify your archive as "anypath/MyArchive.jar" where anypath is the actual path to the jar (from the codebase)

and the code as "just.some.path.MyApplet.class" where 'just.some.path.MyApplet.class' exists in the jar.

use the command

jar -tf MyApplet.jar test.techview.applets.SignedApplet

to see all the classes in the jar at that path.

Here's one I ripped out of http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.2/docs/script.html

<OBJECT ID="ExplicitButton1" WIDTH=209 HEIGHT=246

CLASSID="CLSID:8AD9C840-044E-11d1-B3E9-00805F499D93">

<PARAM NAME="code" value="sunw.demo.buttons.ExplicitButton">

<PARAM NAME="archive" value="buttons.jar">

<PARAM NAME="type" value="application/x-java-bean;version=1.1">

<param name="width" value="209">

<param name="width" value="209">

</OBJECT>
