First of all watch the

java.io.*;

:eek:
lib... It is much limited as for applets at all
applets are much limited in browsers owing to the security things...

'fess us... maybe first you was running the applet in your IDE appletviewer and then decided to run it in your browser? :rolleyes:

Yea it was a long shot there should not be a difference, I thought you might be running your own server to launch the website.

I'm a total beginner in java, i've just learned the language through console, and decided to move onto apps. There's nothing static... it's just the helloworld app. the simplest. I noticed it didn't actually update when I changed the output text randomly.

I tried pressing ctr + f5, but it doesn't reload for some fustrating reason.
My Internet explorer seems to refresh every single web page like that except for the html documents that I create.

Thanks for replies.

what you mean? applet or web page does not reload or what? :confused:
If your applet does not reload that means it may contain static objects which produce leak of JRE memory ;)
Don't use static objects and that's should be fine I guess... Show us the applet code


And concerning this

Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: \localhost\C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Java\ch3\GridLayoutExample. class (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)

I think the applet is supposed to be downloaded from its native host and runs code like a
getDocumentBase()+getCodeBase()

And owing to this ...

we must looking GridLayoutExample. class at its native host resource :) like a
getDocumentBase().gethost()+getCodeBase()+"GridLay outExample. class" because it is a resource file.
Fact is the applet uses serialization to run :)

Fact is the applet uses serialization to run :)

Has the .class file been downloaded then?

[Webuser]

Has the .class file been downloaded then?

I guess it can't be downloaded from here

\localhost\C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Java\ch3\GridLayoutExample. class

;)

Either one should run the applet downloaded from its native host or somehow get this resource GridLayoutExample. class and adapt applet inner code and its resources for local running :)
