So I run an applet as usual when in the bottom left corner where it says "Executing applet in appletviewer" stays there and appletviewer never opens up. When I right click on the class, "Run Applet" is in red, if that's important at all. I've uninstalled everything Java related on my computer and re-installed JDK 7 multiple times as well as BlueJ and I still get the result of appletviewer not popping up. The applet class I keep trying is straight from my textbook's website so I'm guessing there's nothing wrong with the code. The applet works fine with everyone else's computers at my school. So what can I do to make appletviewer work?
Here's the code to the class:
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import java.awt.*;
public class Snowman extends JApplet
{
public void paint (Graphics page)
{
final int MID = 150;
final int TOP = 50;
setBackground (Color.cyan);
page.setColor (Color.blue);
page.fillRect (0, 175, 300, 50); // ground
page.setColor (Color.yellow);
page.fillOval (-40, -40, 80, 80); // sun
page.setColor (Color.white);
page.fillOval (MID-20, TOP, 40, 40); // head
page.fillOval (MID-35, TOP+35, 70, 50); // upper torso
page.fillOval (MID-50, TOP+80, 100, 60); // lower torso
page.setColor (Color.black);
page.fillOval (MID-10, TOP+10, 5, 5); // left eye
page.fillOval (MID+5, TOP+10, 5, 5); // right eye
page.drawArc (MID-10, TOP+20, 20, 10, 190, 160); // smile
page.drawLine (MID-25, TOP+60, MID-50, TOP+40); // left arm
page.drawLine (MID+25, TOP+60, MID+55, TOP+60); // right arm
page.drawLine (MID-20, TOP+5, MID+20, TOP+5); // brim of hat
page.fillRect (MID-15, TOP-20, 30, 25); // top of hat
}
}
