I'm trying to run this Java Applet from a static page:



The applet always fails to load.

I've placed the 'smorse.class' file in the main 'public' directory, as well as in the staticpages subdirectory, but to no avail.

Any suggestions on how to get this to work?

I've never tried this but you should probably give a complete path to the class in the code attribute. Also are you sure that's the name of the class? Most java classes have names like com.example.TheClass.

Yes, that's the name of the class. The code works fine in an html file, with the class file in the same directory as the html file.

And I've tried setting the path, both as a URL and as a 'file path' on the server. It still doesn't work.

I got it figured out. To load a Java applet from another location, the keyword 'Codebase' must be used, such as here:

align="bottom" vspace="1"> name="WPM" value="13">

The Java applet runs fine in a static page.
