Conversion of a Java Web Start app to an Applet

I'm trying to figure out how difficult it would be to convert a Java Web Start app to an applet. Theoretically, if the application didn't do anything such as write to the file system...basically if all of it's actions should be safe within the Applet sandbox, how tricky would it be? Is it a matter of wrapping the main app inside of an ...

I'm developing a Java Applet, and reducing the size of the binary code will make the applet open faster and will improve the user experience.

signed java applet restrictions?

I wrote a java applet and self signed it. When I run it in eclipse or as a executable jar it works fine. But when I upload it, it doesn't do anything. It loads, and the self signed cert warning does come up and I click yes but nothing. I was under the impression that signed applets had no restrictions. What could be the problem? ...

What security can be added to Java Applets?

When building a Java Applet are there any steps that can be made to prevent a user invoking internal methods? Theoretically most objects can be analysed and methods can be invoked on a client machine. In addition to obfuscation are there any other steps that can help prevent this? My situation is to secure a game where the top score i...

Applets failing to load

While testing our setup for user acceptance testing, we got some reports that java applets in our web application would occasionally fail to load.

There's getParameter() which is fine for reading a parameter I know of. However, should I want (for lib architecture reasons) to read all the parameters that have been passed to an applet, is there a way to do it? I've looked at the API and googled a bit, but no luck. ...

What version of Java is realistic to expect on a client/browser?

I'm planning to develop an applet-based application that will be used by "average Jill" non-technical users (classical musicians, to be precise). What version of Java can I realistically expect those users to have installed in their browsers? Is 1.5 safe? I know Microsoft hasn't bundled Java with Windows in years, but do most OEM Windows...

Is is possible to sign a java applet for free?

I made a weird applet which allows you to paint with your voice. Obviously it requires access to the microphone, but Java applets are not allowed access unless they are signed. As far as I can tell its difficult and involves cryptography, and, though its not clear, I think that I'm expected to pay MONEY to Verisign as well. This all seem...

Embedding an applet doesn't work on my website

I'm trying to code an applet and put it in my website. I remember doing this a long time ago using Borland back when 1.4 was the latest version. It of course used the applet tag (which I'm using currently) and it had no issues. But anyways, I put the class files in httpdocs/ under its own directory, and then used this code in the web ...

Focus behavior in Applet-Javascript interaction

I have a web page with an applet that opens a popup window and also makes Javascript calls. When that Javascript call results in a focus() call on an HTML input, that causes the browser window to push itself in front of the applet window. But only on certain browsers, namely MSIE. On Firefox the applet window remains on top. How can I ke...
