Hi,
Here is how I specified my URL in the Location text field
to test on my local machine:
file:/subdirectory1/subdirectory2/htmldirectory/HelloEarth.html
So I had to type the full directory path starting from the
system root directory, before specifying the actual html file to run.
Note: My classes are stored in a subdirectory below where my html
files exist. For this reason, I set my CODEBASE tag in my
html file to that full class path.
EXAMPLE HTML file:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Java Beta HelloEarth</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<APPLET CODEBASE="/subdirectory1/subdirectory2/htmldirectory/classdirectory"
CODE="HelloEarth.class" WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=300>
</APPLET>
</BODY>
</HTML>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That's it for this simple test!
Finally, Roger Day (roger@ssynth.co.uk) and I have both been unsuccessful in
running the Tumbling Duke demo so far. The BouncingHeads demo works.
(These demo directories are packaged under the java beta directory, under the
demo directory.) I am hopeful this TumblingDuke demo will run once I get
better organized with all of the versions of Netscape and Java I have been
working with (probably 90% of my problem).
I hope this works for you.
