Re: why web browsers don't play Java applet?

I am learning Java applet. After I have written it, I
found that I can only view it by appletviewer. If I try
to open it with FireFox(version 1.5) or NetScape(version 7.2),
it is a blank field. (I am using Microsoft XP OS. I am a
Java programmer. I have SDK 1.5 installed.)

During the installation of that, you should have got a question whether you
wanted to install the plugins for the web browsers you have on your machine.

My questions are two:
1) Are java applets rarely, rarely used so nobody cares?

There is an abundance of applets out there, though I believe more of new
development for the web has increased the use of pure server applications
instead, e.g. servlets, JSP, ASP, etc., as that increases the possibility to
use the applications from "any" browser, regardless of how the client has it
configured.

2) How to configure the web browsers to let
them display java applets?

Install the Java-plugin for your browser.

I believe the easiest way to check if you have it installed is at:
