2.2.2 Getting Started with JBK Plugin

The following steps describe how to execute an applet on a browser by using JBK Plugin:

1. Create an applet class.

   Follow the usual procedure in creating an applet class.

2. Create an HTML file for executing an applet.

   To execute an applet by JBK Plugin, the HTML file for the applet needs a special tag for JBK Plugin in it, instead of a usual <APPLET> tag. See '2.2.3 How to Create an HTML File for JBK Plugin' for the detail.

3. Store the applet class and the HTML file in a Web server.

   Follow the usual storing procedure.

4. Start the browser on a client machine, and load the HTML file from the Web server. To load the HTML file, specify the URL indicating its storage location in the browser.

   JBK Plugin automatically starts when the browser reads the HTML file with tags for JBK Plugin. JBK Plugin then downloads applet classes, and it executes applets in the browser by using the Java VM that is installed in another folder rather than the Java VM provided by the browser.
