chaucer345 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 So I've been developing what I hope will become a browser based text adventure as a Java applet. I know that Johnny seems to be a server which has more advanced Java applications enabled, but I wanted to ask if the other server would work just as well. I'm just developing a really simple applet, nothing fancy and I wasn't sure if Johnny would be required to run Java applets or whether that could be done just as well with Stevie. I suppose that's a fairly ignorant question coming from someone trying to write software, but for the life of me I just can't figure out what would be absolutely required to make sure this works. I would be very grateful for any assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinryuu Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Applets are run by invoking a JVM on the client machine, so server details are irrelevant. Keep in mind that to run it the client will need to install java, and even then they could refuse to allow your applet permission to run. Applets are really viewed as the technology of yesteryear, but if you know Java or have a decent Java beginner's book, then an applet is easy to make without learning anything too complicated.
