I badly need a step-by-step insrtructions to install this applet.Ī. When I File/Open the BNCApplet.java in firefox it simply offers to save the file! Update: I have also installed icedtea as suggested by Byte Commander: sudo apt-get install icedtea-8-pluginĪnd checked it in firefox preferences and it is there and active.

In any case should I be compiling this at all before I can use it as a plugin? And how do I use it as a plugin. I am sure this java program is bug-free and should work flawlessly. Note:īNCApplet1.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations. Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details. ^ Note: BNCApplet1.java uses or overrides a deprecated API. Here it is: javac BNCApplet1.javaīNCApplet1.java:51: error: class BigNumCalc is public, should beĭeclared in a file named BigNumCalc.java public class BigNumCalc Which gave me loads of error messages that mean nothing to me.

I have installed openjdk using: sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdkĪnd tried to compile by: javac BNCApplet.java The applet is BNCApplet.java that I got from this link: Can someone please show me how I can use/install a java applet I downloaded to work with my browser (firefox).
