You need to install the JRE

www.java.sun.com/getjava

jre1.5.0 is already installed ..

In that case, in the Control Panel Java 'applet' make sure that JRE is set to work with IE

I don't know how to do that ??
In the Control Panel Java 'applet' >> advanced tab >> "<applet> tag support">>Internet Explorer check box is already checked ..
Is that what you mean??

Yes. Try this applet and tell me what happens:

http://www.w3.org/Protocols/Time/

Nothing happens!! it opens a normal page ..

EMMMMMMM!!!
I got this Message (Exception):
Your browser is not configured to show Java 1.1 applets. This would show a clock with the time in central European timezone.

OK Try this

http://www.cehjohnson.btinternet.co.uk/protean/speedtest.htm

appears to be a problem with your install, try reinstalling the jre

The last result you got is probably OK, but what result did you get at the last link?

It works fine on Mozilla FireFox browser, but doesn't work on IE ..

M$ were threatening to withdraw applet support at some time, but are you *sure* the config looks right in the Control Panel?

I'm using JDeveloper and I tried to run a simple applet program on Mozilla FireFox browser but it gives "Loading Java applet failed" message in the status bar,but when I run the applet on AppletViewer it runs as expected ..

Okay .. I'll try what you suggested, I'll be back!!
thanx for your time ..

check the console for errors (applet viewer and broweser are quite different containers).
Could be that u are doing something that is not permitter in a browser (such as accessing a file on disk)

this is the applet ..

package mypackage;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.UIManager;

public class Applet1 extends JApplet
{
  public Applet1()
  {
  }

  public void init()
  {
    try
    {
      jbInit();
     
     
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }

  }

  private void jbInit() throws Exception
  {
    this.getContentPane().setLayout(null);
  }

  static  
  {
    try
    {
      UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
      UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getCrossPlatformLookAndFeelClassName());
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
    }

  }
 
  public void paint( Graphics g) {
      /** show the results */
      g.drawRect( 15, 20, 200, 105 ) ;
      g.drawString( "Hello Ahmad", 25, 45 ) ;
     // g.drawString( "My name is TAW ", 25, 75 ) ;

   }
}

check the error in the console

and set the l&f in init instead of a static block
(why are you setting it twice?)

I reinstall it, yet nothing change!!
So I will use FireFox ..

>>(why are you setting it twice?)
I didn't notice that :o)

thanx for your time,
regards,

>>I didn't notice that :o)

That's not the reason for your error

>>That's not the reason for your error
Yea I know :o)

Actually, I didn't reinstall jre properly in the first time, but when I reinstall it *again* the problem gone, and now every thing works as expected ;o) I think the previous JRE was corrupted ..

thanx for both of you ..
I really appreciate your help,
regards,Ahmad;
