Swing components not visible in applet

[Vrinda]

Hello,
I am trying to build a Japplet using swing components. But the components are not visible after executing the applet. Do I need to install some pug-in.
Please help.
regards
Vrinda

yes vrinda,
u do need plugin to run a swing applet.
what u can do is u can use html converter and convert ur html file to a different format. after converting whenever u'll try to open the html file the plugin will be automatically downloaded.
the HTML converter is available at sun's site.

Hi Vrinda,
You need to download a software called HTML converter from the sun site
1) http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/features.html
This is a large file and once downloaded
2) you have to install it
3) Run the program from Start menu
4) Select the file you want to convert and press convert
5)) the program creates a .conv file. rename it to .Html or .htm .
6) download the Java plug-in from here
http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/index.html
This is again a large file of 5-8 MB based on which version you want to download
6) open the converted file and SWing works!!!.
But this takes a hell lot of time. It may take this much time only the first time.
Regds
Rahul.

hey,
the convertor I have is only 146KB winzip file and it works fine.The file required is i18n.jar (as the plug-in) with this file the swing applets should work nice.
