Java applets
Java is a
general purpose, object-oriented programming language
that is OS independent. This means you can launch an
application written in Java in your web browser
regardless of your operating system. Java programs are
also known as Java applets. Some disadvantages of using
Java are slow load times and limited browser support.
Browsers that are Java-capable include Netscape Navigator
2.0 for Windows 95 and Unix/Linux, Netscape Navigator 3.0
for Windows 95, Macintosh and Unix/Linux and Internet
Explorer 3.0 for Windows 95 and Macintosh.
If you have a Java-capable
browser, take a look at these examples to get a quick
overview of Java applets:
