Java Applets not working well on Internet Explorer

Asked By Elmer Zabat 600 points N/A Posted on - 06/19/2011

Hi,

I am having a problem with my Java Applet on IE. I made an applet program open up on Internet Explorer and seems not working well, but when tried using on different browser , it works fine. Also i noticed other interactive content  not working properly on IE.

Hope someone can find a solution for me.

Thank you very much.

Elmer.

Java Applets not working well on Internet Explorer

Hi Elmer,

• Just to set your expectations, you must have the 1.6.0_10 plug in or else you will have difficulties later on. And also always to clear your temporary internet files to avoid errors using Java Console. 
• Let me also inform you that it is an known issue that sometimes Java Console is having error message with all the common browser. Let me provide you with some tips that might be helpful on this matter; please make sure that you have the latest version and you must enable Manage Add Ons. With this, applets will work fine.

I hope this would help.
