Here's the ouput of the applet:

And Here's the source code: HellowWorld3.java

Notice that the "public static void main(String args[])" method is not needed if this class will be only an applet!

Applets created using the IFC 1.0 require a very simple helper applet that actually loads and runs THE applet!

As you can see even this small applet takes a while to run. The problem is that a number of the IFC classess must be loaded by the browser from the web server. One can force the browser to load all of the IFC (~800K) in one chunk (using ZIP or CAB files), or only the classes needed (one connection/request per class) but either way the process is slow!
