Need help to run my first applet

**piulitza** · September 1st, 2011, 06:33 AM

I have begun learning about how to make an applet. I have written the code for the applet in eclipse and after i try to put it into a html code and run it . As i see, eclipse may run the applet. The code of the applet is this:

package mainPack;
 
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
 
public class FirstApplet extends Applet
{
	Image img;
	public void init()
	{
		img = getImage(getCodeBase(), "tom.gif");
 
	}
	public void paint(Graphics g)
	{
		g.drawImage(img, 50, 50, this);
		g.drawOval(100, 0, 150, 50);
		g.drawString("Ce faci FOCA?", 110, 25);
 
	}
 
}

The first problem i have is that the applet does not want to draw the image. I can see the oval and the string but not the image.

And after i written a notepad with this code :

<html>
<head>
<title>Primul applet Java</title>
</head>
<body>
<applet code=C:\Users\npiulitza\Desktop\Folosire applet\FirstApplet.class width=400 height=400>
</applet>
</body>
</html>

If i open this with firefox or google chrome i get

Error. Click for details

And i also clicked to see the details and there is written

oad: class C:\Users\npiulitza\Desktop\Folosire not found.

The code= path should be in "s
Notice how the path in the error message stops at the space in the path.
You will have a problem with the package statement. Try removing it for now.

For simpler testing move all of the .class files and the html file to the same folder.
After you have removed the package statement and recompiled, change the html Applet tag's code= to:
code=FirstApplet
The code= refers to the class name not the filename.

No, still does not work for me

. If i run the applet inside eclipse, it works. But if i try to put it into a HTML code, it does not work. I have moved that .class file to same folder where i have the notepad with html code. I tried all, writing at the

applet code =

the path to the file, or only the name of the file, with and without .class extension. Still get that error when i try to open the html file with the browser. I do not understand what am i doing wrong.

. I also tried to make another applet to work, and same....cannot make it work

Did you try this:
Remove the package statement and compile the program.
Copy all the .class files created to a test folder.
Write an HTML file with (I'm assuming the class name is FirstApplet):
<applet code=FirstApplet width=400 height=400>
Open the html file in a browser.
Look in the browser's java console for any error messages.

Yeah, it worked !! It is good to know i should not create the applet classes inside the packages.

You can put the applet inside a package. For now I thought it'd be simpler to take it out.
With a package you need to have the correct package path in the code= and the class files must be in the folders that match that package path.

should not create the applet classes inside the packages

There's nothing wrong with using package names in applets. It's sometimes handy to reduce the number of things that can go wrong (like space characters in non-delimited strings in HTML) by removing package names from your test code, but they do work when used properly!
