cannot open applets from my computer using IE 6
hello,
i have a problem when i try to open an applet from my computer using HTML file for it
<applet code="x.class" width=600 height=600 HSPACE =50 VSPACE=100>
Applet not displayed - requires a Java enabled browser
</applet>
The only thing that appears to my in my IE browser is a gray window.
now i have checked and the path are correct (the html and the class file in the same directory)
the problem Occurred only when I try to open class file from my computer, I dont have problems to open them from the web (if for example i enter some site with an applet).
I have a WIN98 SE, IE 6
thank you very much for your help!

Hi!
Ive read your reply regarding the Sun Java Plug-in . I cannot open the applets in my internet explorer too, the applets are replaced by the white space with a red cross mark. Can you please tell how to make sure that i have the Java Plug-in, if not how can i get it?
Thank You.
Maan. I remember when i had the same situation. I took me 2 months to run an applet from a server. Well i don't have internet and all that... Anyways make sure you have those things:
1) have java runtime installed as said above, easiest way go to java.com, SUN's JAVA SOFT RULES! FORGET ABOUT MS' s***.
2) i never managed to run an applet with code you wrote for example.I use <object> instead and i works fine everywhere.
<OBJECT classid = "clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"
codebase = "http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_2-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,3,1,0"
WIDTH = "x" HEIGHT = "y">
<PARAM NAME = CODE VALUE = "ClassNameWithoutExtension" >
<PARAM NAME = CODEBASE VALUE = "." >
<PARAM NAME = "type" VALUE = "application/x-java-applet;version=1.3.1">
<PARAM NAME = "scriptable" VALUE = "false">
</OBJECT>
3) error might be in the applet itself. The thing is browser doesn't tell you what the hell is wrong with it.
