Applets

[KingCobra220]

A couple weeks ago we learned GUI in my computer science class. I've got java fever and want to make an applet. Whats the difference between making an applet vs. making a project? Do you need a server to host an applet or would any hosting site, like geocities, work? Any information about creating/hosting/uploading applets would be helpful.

An applet is created just like a normal java program but has certain characteristics such as extending Applet or JApplet. The applet is then embedded in an html document and can be used by any browser that supports the correct JVM version.
