Using applets with JPEG images.

Hello.

I have an small applet that I want to display an image of a pie graph. The name of the image is "plannedparenthood.jpeg"

How do I get the applet to display the image? I tried using the getCodeBase method, but maybe I'm just not doing it right.

Thanks.

How exactly are you trying to do it, and what happens? Any errors? And just where is this image located?

I just want the applet to show the image. Then I'll describe the image in paragraphs above and below the image.

I have the image in the same folder as applet.

Thanks :)

Actually...it might be better if I showed some code...

Code:

---

import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;



public class TryApplet extends Applet
{
        private Image image1 = null;

  public void init()
  {





    image1 = this.getImage(this.getCodeBase() , "plannedparenthood.jpeg");

  }


  public void paint (Graphics g)
  {
          g.drawImage(image1, 0, 0, 452, 285, this );
  }
}

---

The Jpeg I am using is 452X285.

The code compiles, but I just can't see an image when I run the code.

Any help is appreciated :)

How are you executing the applet? Where are all the files that are being used when executing this applet? the html, class file(s) and image?
What does the <applet tag in the html look like?

Add a println to print out the value returned by the getCodeBase() method.

I'm executing the code through a simple HTML code for now. I didn't want to get too crazy with the HTML. I'm a novice on both...but I'm much better at HTML than I am at Java.

All of my files (html, java, jpeg) are in the same folder.

The applet tag looks like this...

<applet code="applet.class" width="600" height="600"> </applet>

Where are you .class files?

Also in the same folder

Add a println to print out the value returned by the getCodeBase() method. What is printed out?

Look in the browser's java console.

I updated my JRE to version 1.7

I have a 64 bit machine...and I have it in both 64 bit and 32 bit folders.

When I run the applet...it runs, but no matter what browser I use (IE, Firefox, Chrome) it tells me to download a plug in that I already have on my computer.

Could this be my problem? When I was on version 6, I could run regular applets, just not ones with JPEGS. Now I can't run any applets at all. I get a warning asking me to download a plug in that's already installed. What do I do?

Thanks

Look at the control panel's java icon. is there a setting there to turn on the java plugin?
Or look in the browsers. Is the java plugin disabled?

At first it was disabled because it was out of date. So I updated it. Now it keeps asking me to update the plug in. So I did.

But it won't take the plug in. Every time I load it (and I even restart my computer afterwards) it won't run the plug in.

I'm on FireFox...the add-on I have is Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.30.255 10.3.1.255

I'm running Windows 7 64bit.
