I created an applet that requires a CSV file for information. The way the applet works, is that there is a text field in which you type in your zip code, then you press a button. That causes the program to parse through the CSV file which contains a latitude and longitude, then display the latitude and longitude on a JLabel
in the applet.
When I created it, I debugged it and tested it, so I know it works on my desktop (when running in eclipse). The problem is when I put in on the web, it displays but can't do anything, meaning it is just an applet with a text field and a button, but when you press the button, nothing happens. I know that it is not my ActionListener
, because it works on the desktop, but I must be doing something wrong with the HTML of it. The name of the CSV file is zips.csv
. The name of the main class is main.class
(or main.java
) and the action listener is myActionListener.class
(or myActionListener.java
).
Here is the HTML that I am using for it right now:
<applet archive="sites/default/files/myApplet.jar" code="main.class" width="500" height="200">
</applet>
Revision:
Romething else that someone recommended to me was to create a php script that will parse the csv file, and than have that return a value to the java applet. My knowledge of PHP ls limited, so I was wonder if someone could tell me how I could go about doing this, or telling me where I can learn how to do this.
CsvReader products = new CsvReader("zips.csv");
My crystal ball tells me that CsvReader
presumes the String
to represent a File
object. It might also have another constructor that accepts an URL
.
A sand-boxed applet cannot access File
objects, and a trusted applet can only access File
objects on the computer of the end user. That is useless to this applet. If the API has a constructor that accepts an URL
, that is the one to use here. Something like:
URL url = this.getClass().getResource("zips.csv");
//CsvReader products = new CsvReader(url);
InputStream is = url.openStream();
CsvReader products = new CsvReader(is);
A constructor that accepts an InputStream
is even more versatile, and only a line longer.
If the CsvReader
accepts neither of URL
or InputStream
, I suggest you find another API. One that was not written by amateurs.
