Thanks for the suggestion, guys. I tried Pack200 a few days back but couldn't get it working. The applet couldn't find the main class once the pack.gz file was returned from the server. Maybe I packed it wrong or the logic in my servlet is wrong . . . but it's definitely something I need to look into when I have a few more cycles available. In the meantime, I've implemented some caching which saves time on the startup. <object> <param name="cache_option" value="Plugin"/> <param name="cache_archive" value="..."/> <param name="cache_version" value="1.0.0.1"/> </object>Regards, Marc

It makes the build more complex, but it's definitely a workable solution.Mark On Feb 11, 2008 11:22 PM, Jeremias Maerki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Ok, but you're talking about the app server. The applet runs on theclient. You can still deploy a Java 1.5/6 applet via a servlet if youcan make sure the client has a Java 1.5 or 6 plug-in installed. My0.05CHF.

Thanks. p.s.
