You probably need to download the latest version of the java plug-in for your browser -try http://www.java.com/en/index.jsp and click on the green link :o)

Its a programmers forum, not a forum for issues like how to open your browser, or where the any key is located.Try setting the enable java flag in the security settings.What is the output from the Java Console?

Hey, do you use a FireWall by any chance? I do, and it stops JAVA from running on a broswer behind it. I'm still looking for a way around that, 'til then you're on your own.

Which web browser and operating system are you using?

I have found that in some extremely rare cases, I'll come across a Java applet that works under the default virtual machine provided by Microsoft, and does not work under any of Sun's JVMs starting with version 1.4. (For the curious, RSAspProxy is one such applet.)

If you are using a "third party" browser like Opera or Konquerer, I don't know that the Java support is 100% compatible with Sun's, particularly for operating systems that Sun does not provide binaries for.

Bottom line is that the best advice we can give you is to either double-check the settings, try uninstalling and then reinstalling, or give us some specifics about your circumstances.

Well, first off, I've had some problems like this before, but I don't muchly like your attitude, so I don't think I'm going to give you an answer (I happen to be one of those game programmers with only 1 brain cell, so I took offense to your comment). If you'd like help, try being nicer.

Since I'm such a good guy though, and I like to help people (because I'm always asking for help myself) I'll answer your question.

My brother had a similar problem. He couldn't get any applets to run on his system for some strange reason. We tried downloading the VM, but that didn't work, nor did installing the sdk or anything. We tried installing just about every java related package that we could find on sun's website. Nothing worked. I think what happened was at one point he disabled java support in his browser. There was a setting that kept that preference, and kept the applets from running. Java was enabled in his browser, but the applets still refused to run. They were WORKING applets too. The only think we could think to do (after a solid month of troubleshooting) was reformat. It fixed the problem. If you're not willing to reformat, then I don't know what to tell you.

Good luck.

Be nicer.

Extremely rare?

I dont find it so rare. The idea of platform independency is program once, run everywhere, but in reality its more like program once and debug everywhere...

If you create an applet with a complex gui, and you only test it on one virtual machine, then it would only work on other virtual machines in extremely rare cases. There are quite a few bugs in the Sun plugin VMs for IE, so if you only use the Microsoft VM for testing then you are guarantied a lot of debugging to make it work on Sun VM.

well I guess so since Microsoft's VM sucks. Microsoft doesn't give half a hoot for Java and so their ancient VM is just enough to get by. If you're programming with J2SDK1.4.x than It's not hard to imagine that some of your code will not run on the MVM.
