Preparing an Applet

• The applet should be run through the javac compiler getting a .class file as before:  javac MyApplet.java

• The resulting file, MyApplet.class, is stored in the document collection of a web server, at some URL.

• Create a separate HTML file with an applet tag:

  <APPLET
  
  CODEBASE=http://myserver.org/mydirectory
  CODE=“MyApplet.class”
  WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=100>

• When the browser loads the HTML file, it also downloads the .class file and the java interpreter calls the init(), start(), and paint() methods.
