59413 - java applet not executing.

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect, P3)

Description

[Nasiruddin M.S]

Netscape commercial build: 10/31
Platform : Solaris2.8(sparc)

Please see the bug-id 42500. 

I tested the same on Solaris and the applet is not working. It is giving the
class format error and displays a  alert box saying 'null'.

Note: According to simillar Bug-id 58800, the applet in question needs to be
compiled with latest jdk. But why this should display 'null' alert box?.

The null alert is from the javascript line

<script>setTimeout("alert(horuwesn.applets[0]);", 6000); </script>

I downloaded the parbanner.class file, and put in the html page listed at bug
42500, correcting the CODEBASE to be valid for this page of course, and I'm
happy to say that the banner displays correctly.

I'm using 11/07/00 and FCS java plugin on Solaris.
