Getting Started

  • Place the class file (ascroll2.class) into the directory containing the HTML document which you want to insert into the applet (or into a different directory, and add the correct CODEBASE= attribute).
  • Add the applet tag to your HTML document in the position you want "Advanced Horizontal Scrolling Text Java Applet" to appear.
  • The info parameter must be included for the applet to run. It is case sensitive, and the number of spaces between words must be identical (entirely single-spaced). If you try to run the applet and you see the message "info parameter error", it denotes a problem with this parameter.


Troubleshooting & Support

  • Please send any questions, requests or remarks you might have to: info@appletcollection.com
  • Usually the easiest way to customize the applet is cut and paste the applet tag information used in the sample and modify it to fit your web page.
  • If you see a "class not found" message, this means what it says -- your browser can't find the .class files specified. This may mean a spelling or case mistake in the CODE= attribute, the wrong location in the CODEBASE= attribute, or that you've forgotten to copy the .class file (ascroll2.class) to the necessary directory.
  • Make sure that your <APPLET> tag, closing </APPLET> tag, and all <PARAM> tags have < and > brackets. Check that the value for every parameter is enclosed between " signs.
  • If you see a NullPointerException displayed in the browser status-bar, it's most likely to be caused by a mistake in an image-based parameter. Check that paths and names of images are correct.
  • If the applet runs, but you can't make it do what you want it to do, please take another look at the documentation.
