I have created a JApplet using the JUNG library in Netbeans that compiles and runs normally. However, when I try to create an html file that runs the applet, only a grey pane appears but the components are missing. My class is :
public class View extends JApplet {
//Here I declare the buttons etc..
public View()
{
initializeComponent();
fetchGraphs();
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{
f = new JFrame();
Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
x = screenSize.width;
y = screenSize.height;
f.getContentPane().add(new View());
f.setTitle("Social Network Privacy Settings and Access Control");
f.setLocation(new Point(15, 20));
f.setSize(new Dimension(x-20,y-50));
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.setResizable(false);
f.setVisible(true);
}
}
The method initializeComponent() adds all the components to the main window. I used JFrameBuilder to build some basic components. JFrameBuilder uses a method addComponent(container, component, x, y, width, height) to add components
I use the code below for that:
contentPane = (JPanel)this.getContentPane();
//to create the japplet contentpane
addComponent(contentPane, genGraphButton, (int)(0.35*x),(int)(0.63*y),
(int)(0.2*x),28);
// to add components
Then I create an html file:
<applet code = 'MyPackage.View'
archive = 'MyProject.jar',
width = 1600,
height = 800/>
in the /dist folder but then only a grey pane appears when I try to open it with Mozilla Firefox. The strange thing is that I have created another simple applet, this time with netbeans JBuilder and it runs normally in a web page.
I really need some help!
