Applets

[MBD]

Hi, I get a ClassNotFound Exception each time I try to run this applet, is it because I have added the applet code to the code source file rather than creating a separate html file? any help would be appriciated, thanks. MBD.

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

<applet code="Banner" width=300 height=50>
</applet>


public class Banner extends Applet implements Runnable {
	String msg = " Java Rules the Web ";
	Thread t;
	boolean stopFlag;
	

public void init() {			// Initialize t to null.
	t = null;
	}


public void start() {			// Start the thread.
	t = new Thread(this);
	stopFlag = false;
	t.start();
	}


public void run() {			// Entry point for thr Thread
	char ch;			// that runs the Banner.
	for( ; ; ) {			// Display Banner.				
	   try {
	      repaint();
	      Thread.sleep(250);
	      ch = msg.charAt(0);
	      msg = msg.substring(1, msg.length());
	      msg += ch;
	      if(stopFlag)
		break;
	      } catch(InterruptedException exc) { }
	   }
	}


public void stop() {			// Pause the Banner.
	stopFlag = true;
	t = null;
	}


public void paint(Graphics g) {		// Display the Banner.
	g.drawString(msg, 50, 30);
	}
   }

Applets is not my strong side but where is the main method?
Anyway there is a section for Java Applets

Applets dont have a main method :D use the init() method instead
