See also: the applet TAG page What are the different pieces that can make up an applet, and how do I install them? Where can I put my applet's class files, and how do I indicate their location using the APPLET tag?

ChangeCursorExample.html, ChangeCursor11Example.html See also: Q5.14 Applet Program StructureSeveral applet methods seem special, in that I need to define them even if my own code doesn't invoke them -- what are the methods, and when (and by whom) are they invoked? See also: Q4.17, Q4.18, Q8.1, Q8.5 Should applets have constructors? How can my applet tell when a user leaves or returns to the web page containing my applet?

See also: Q4.7 How do I select a URL from my applet and send the browser to that page? See also: Q10.14 Can applets on different pages communicate with each other? See also: Q4.20 MiscellaneousCan I load an applet dynamically into a Java application, and if so, how does the applet get the parameter information it would normally get from the APPLET tag? Do I need any special server software or setup to deliver applets? See also: Q4.1 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
