Java Plug-in software enables enterprise
customers to direct applets or JavaBeans
on their intranet web pages to run using Sun's Java 2 Runtime Environment,
Standard Edition (JRE) instead of the web browser's default virtual
machine. Sun's JRE provides a Java Compatible
environment for today's widely adopted web browsers. That means
consistency and reliability when running applets.
In Sun Microsystems' ongoing effort to make it easy to deploy
applications and applets written in the Java programming language,
we now include Java Plug-in software as part of the JRE 1.4 Solaris/Linux/Microsoft
Windows Production Release. Including Java Plug-in software with
these JRE 1.4 releases allows deployment of applets to web browsers
that take full advantage of the latest capabilities and features
of the Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v 1.4 (Java 2 SDKTM). Write Java 2 SDK v 1.4 software-based applets today
and deploy them to existing Netscape NavigatorTM or Microsoft Internet Explorer users immediately!
A single, free-of-charge download of the JRE 1.4 Solaris/Linux/Microsoft
Windows Production Release affords redistribution of both standalone
Java technology-based applications and browser-based applets pursuant
to the terms of the license. To access Java Plug-in 1.4 software,
please select the link below to the JRE 1.4 Production Release and
follow the download procedure.

JRE 1.4 (includes Java Plug-in
1.4)
Archive Downloads
The above default release, 1.4, is the latest release of Java Plug-in.
Sun recommends that you use it. However, if for some reason you
need an older release, such as 1.3.0, 1.3.0_01, 1.3.0_02, or 1.3.1,
they are available from the link below. Note that you should always
download and use the corresponding version of the HTML Converter
for any of the 1.3.0 releases of Java Plug-in. (In 1.4, the converter
is included with the SDK 1.4 Standard Edition release.)

Demos
Note
For the Java 2 SDK/JRE v 1.4 demo applets, there are two
pages below: one for applets launched via the APPLET
tag in an HTML page, and one for applets Lauched via the OBJECT
or EMBED tag.

The demonstration collections specify the use of Java Plug-in
software rather than the browser's default Java
virtual machine.
