Running a Java applet on a website
Question
I have created a Java game using Eclipse. It has 11 classes (with one main class that calls everything else). I called it as an applet in the following manner:
<!-- This is the applet handler to load the Handler Class to run the game -->
<td colspan="3"><applet code="Handler.class" codebase="History Adventure Alamo Adventure/" name="Alamo Battle Adventure" width="680" height="509" archive="Handler.jar" id="Alamo Battle Adventure">
</applet></td>
With it uploaded to the website, it shows an error and tells me to click for details. When I select it, it tells me ClassNotFoundException: Handler.class
The code is in the body and I have nothing in the head. What have I done wrong?
Here is the rest of my code for the page. The actual test page can be found at www.kluckhohndesign.com

return false;
}

This should get you further:
<html>
<body>
<applet
code="Handler"
codebase="http://www.kluckhohndesign.com/History%20Adventure%20Alamo%20Adventure/"
name="Alamo Battle Adventure"
width="680"
height="509"
archive="Handler.jar"
id="Alamo Battle Adventure" >
</applet>
</body>
</html>
You can leave out the http://www.kluckhohndesign.com/ prefix on the codebase.
Now it causes an InvocationTargetException . But ask a new question about that.
Further notes
- The
codeattribute should be the fully qualified name of the class & has nothing to do with the Jar. Most people think FQN equates toHandler.classbut it actually means justHandler. - The codebase can be simply
History%20Adventure%20Alamo%20Adventure/if it is coming off your site. It needs the%20for spaces, as spaces are not valid in an URL. Then again, most deployers would not use directory names with spaces at all, for that very reason. - The
appletelement was never meant to be 'self closed' as was shown in your original page. Instead it needs an explicit</applet>closing element. - Please keep testing in the simpler page I suggested, without all that other cruft.
