[JAVA]Applet problem

[benjaminzsj]

I wrote a little Java applet and executed successfully in JCreator, but it can't display normally in the browser just a gray area. Java in web pages can be displayed. What's wrong?

What java verison you are using?

what the html tag you have used to display the applet?

did you put your applet in a jar file?

give more info so we can help :)

Can you post the applet here?

[benjaminzsj]

import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class boy extends Applet
{
	public void paint (Graphics g)
	{
 ?g.setColor(Color.red);
 ?g.drawString("...", 5, 10);
 ?g.setColor(Color.blue);
 ?g.drawString("......", 5, 30);
	}
}

Do I have to put my applet in a jar?

Here's the HTML

<applet code="boy.class" height=100 width=300>
</applet>

J2SDK 1.4.2, JAVA 1.5.0

you need to put the class in a jar file :)

use the command line

jar cvf C:\boy.jar c:\myProject\boy.class

or

jar cvf C:\boy.jar c:\myProject\*.class

I figured out that it's not about the java but the browser since Opera can display the applet. :unsure:

i shouldnt thnk it needs to be in a jar.

To test your applet (and not the browser) use java's built in apllet viewer.

At the command line simply type:

appletviewer myApp.html
