How to embed a java applet into a web page?

Lets now connect our hello applet (hello.class file) into a web page and run it. I hope you have a basic knowledge in HTML which is web page language. Use the notepad or your text editor to create this web page. Type these codes and save it to the same directory where hello.class file is as a .htm or .html file.



Now open the web page with any internet browser such as Internet Explorer. Bingo! You will see your applet running "Hello from Java!" displays on the web page.

You can also view your applet with java applet viewer. Go to the Command Prompt and type this command to open your applet in the applet viewer.

c:\java12\hello\appletviewer hello.htm

Next we will try to understand how exactly this applet works, line by line.
