java sound - not able to record voice

Java Sound uses a native library. This library needs to be installed on the clients. So I think, the applet can't access the native library.

I would try two things:

1. Use the Java plug-in. Take care to have the extension with the Java sound installed with the plugin.

2. Use Java Webstart. Maybe you have to specify that you use Java sound.

how to use java plugin , i do not know please help..

The idea behind the Java plug-in is that you give the browser the most up-to-date version of Java. You use the <OBJECT> (Internet Explorer) or <EMBED> (Netscape) tag. There's even a tool which converts your HTML page with the <APPLET> tag to the right tags to work with the plug-in.

See the link about the Java plug-in from the Sun's Java web site:

Please read carefully on how the plug-in works with extensions or native libraries, because I am not sure whether the plug-in will really help. But I think so. I would try the plug-in in your place.

Here's the link about Java Webstart:

I wish you good luck!

Hi!
I downloaded the plug-in , installed it and tried to run the applet , now the applet uses the installed plugin instead of default plug in of IE,
but still the problem presists, rather it is more intense, as the applet is not even getting initialized.

anyway thanx for the help,

Hi!
Thanx for the help,
finally i am able to record voice through an applet in IE,
although there were other problems as well but ur help gave me a direction to think, and one of the major reasons the code was not working was older jvm,
so once again thanx!
