Lesson10

Luthios · February 21st, 2012, 10:49 PM

Hello All,

When I run my applet I get the text that I place in paint. However when I run the code below in a browser, I do not get anything but a blank white screen. I have my html file under the JRE System Library and my .java class in a default package. I am unable to run a simple applet in a browser. Thanks in Advance!

HTML Code:

<html>

<head>

<title>My First Web Page</title>

</head>

<body>
My Tic-Tac-Toe game is coming soon:
<APPLET code="HelloWorld.class" width="300" height="250" />
</body>

</html>

Hi Luthios

Move your html file into the same location as your java class. The html code is looking for your java class in JRE System Library and that is not the location of your class.

You could also place you html code in the Lesson 10 folder and use the following in your html file replace the APPLET code with your class information.

Code:

<APPLET code="com.practicaljava.lesson11.TicTacToeApplet" codebase="./bin" width=350" height="400" />

The code is basically saying that the applet code is at com/practicaljava/lesson11/TicTacToeApplet.class and the place to look is /bin.

hope this helps

Thanks Wolverine. I tried the suggestion and got the same results. If I navigate to the file path I get a box with a red x in the browser.

Hello Luthios,
I think you will run successfully the applet in a browser if you locate HelloWorld.class and move it in the same directory as your html file. HelloWorld.class is created by Eclipse from your HelloWorld.java, probably when you first run HelloWorld.java as Java Applet. In my case, I found it in the bin directory of my project path.
Hope this helps.

Unfortunatley, it is in the same folder as the class and will not run.

I guess this is a proof that distance learning cannot always replace successfully in-class, instructor lead training.
Sorry I coulnd't help...

Your help is greatly apreciated! I am also checking other forums and when I find the answer I will post it here. I think there is something anal I am overlooking.

Luthios

your browser is blocking the running of scripts or Active X controls?

Luthios · February 22nd, 2012, 06:43 PM

I have internet explorer 9 set to allow activex. If i did have them blocked IE9 will prompt me to allow blocked content. I tried in chrome as well and I still getting the same results.

Below is the error message that I am receiving when running the applet.
