RE: Running Squiggle as an applet.

Noel,

 

Have you tried using the <APPLET> tag in your HTML instead?  I managed to
get it to work that way.

 

Cheers,

 

John

Subject: Running Squiggle as an applet.

 

I'm using batik Squiggle to print SVG models using the following Javascript
in an .hta file 
 
var oShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
var commandtoRun;
var commandParams;  
commandtoRun = "http://enet. ....../batik-squiggle.jar" ;
commandParams = "http://enet...../s0000XXX.svg"; ; 
oShell.ShellExecute(commandtoRun,commandParams);

 

It works fine when the batik-squiggle.jar file & the batik lib subdirectory
are on a network PC but as Jeremias Maerki was kind enough to point out,
using URLs to specify the JAR files won't work as the Java VM doesn't accept
URLs to build the classpath. He also pointed out that I could run it using
Webstart.

 

But was wondering if I can run it as an applet. I've tried the following
code 

 

<object classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" height="100%"
width="100%" 
 
codebase="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_2_13-windo
ws-i586.cab#Version=1,4,2,13">
<param name="code" value="Main.class">
<param name="archive"
value="batik-squiggle.jar,batik-all.jar,xerces_2_5_0.jar,js.jar,xml-apis.jar
,xml-apis-ext.jar,xalan-2.6.0.jar,batik-util.jar">
<param name="mayscript" value="true">
<param name="svgFile" value="d0000498.svgz">
<param name="isSvgContent" 

 

but I get the following error:

 

"load: org.apache.batik.apps.svgbrowser.Main.class can't be instantiated"

 

If anyone can help me with this I'd be most thankful. 

 

Many Thanks, Noel
