problem while using .class file

[HSN]

Hi Guys,

I'm a new member in this forum
and I've used to register to have a small hint with my project

I have done a game using JApplet and its working greate on netbeans and it connects to mysql and select,insert,delete & upgrade
but when I build the project and run it from the internet explorer
the applet didn't connect to the DB

I've tried this code to see if .class file connects to the DB

    public String t()
    {
        String temp="";
        Class driver_class=null;
        try {
        driver_class = Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        }
        temp=("Found driver " + driver_class);
        return temp;
    }
    public void paint(Graphics g)
    {
        super.paint(g);
        if(t().equals(""))
            g.drawString("Driver Not Found", getWidth()/2, getHeight()/2);
        else
            g.drawString(t(), getWidth()/2, getHeight()/2);
    }

when I run this code in NetBeans
I get
"Found driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" as a result
and when I run the .class file I get "Driver Not Found"

I know the problem (not loading the JDBC Driver) but I didn't know what to do
please help me I have to give this project to my doctor tomorrow & thank you alot .

best regards,

HSN.

Is your mysql jdbc jar file in the runtime class path?
(The answer would be no, otherwise you wouldn't get that exception)

when I run the .class file I get "Driver Not Found"

Can you show how you "run the class"? If its an applet, normally it executes in a browser. Is the html and class file on local drive or loaded from a server? Does the html <APPLET tag's archive= attribute point to the jar file with the driver?

sorry for the bad english
but I didnt speak English,

"run the class" is to open it with the browser using the built files in file Build which call the class files that I have to use them in my project

and my html <applet tags archive= attribute point to the .class file not jar file

If you want we can have private chat on msn and enter my pc using the "teamviewer" to see the problem I have
ok ?

thank you dude.

The Applet tag's code= should be to the classname. The archive= should point to a jar file.

Set the html <APPLET tag's archive= attribute to point to the jar file with the driver.

okay dude I will try that now and see what will happen

Thanks Sir, it works perfectly, I didn't know how to thank you,

God bless you...
