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 there,Have you made sure that IE is using the Sun Java plugin in and not Microsofts's Java plugin? That's usually a common cause...Karianna

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.
