JAVATM PLUG-IN 1.4.2 Demonstration Applets
Java Plug-in home page | FAQ | Documentation

The examples on this page provide demonstration applets solely for the purpose of demonstrating and evaluating Java Plug-in. Hence, the HTML of each page explicitly specifies the use of the JavaTMPlug-in rather than the default Java virtual machine contained in your browser.

Java Plug-in is installed as part of the public Java 2 Runtime Environment. Once installed, the Java Plug-in loads automatically and transparently to render Java applets.

All of these applets leverage Java 2 SDK 1.4.2 features, and are thus dependent on features in that version. For information on compatibility, see Compatibility with Previous Releases. The applets include those in the `demo` directory of the Java 2 SDK, plus a few extras. Each applet is viewed by opening the respective web page (see the links below) in your Web browser.

Programmers: Please feel free to reuse source code from our applets, except in programs where a bug could be life-threatening.
