Running an JApplet
An applet does not have a main() method and so cannot be
started as an application.
For the applet to do anything, some other application must be running
and call the applet's methods.
A Web browser can do this.
A Web page is a text file that a Web browser can display.
The browser follows instructions that
are part of the text to nicely format the page.
Here is a tiny Web page that asks for the applet
AnotherHello:
<html> <body> <applet code="AnotherHello.class" width="300" height="150"> </applet> </body> </html>
This tells the browser to run the applet
AnotherHello.class,
and to use a 300 pixels wide and 150 high drawing area.
Quote marks are required around all the values,
including the numbers, but usually web browsers
will work if you forget them.
You can create this Web page
by typing the above characters into a text editor
(or copy and paste them).
Then save the file as AnotherHello.html
in the same directory that has AnotherHello.class.
Your directory should look something like this:
Now double click on AnotherHello.html.
Your default Web browser should start running and display the applet.
