Java Applets

Here are some of the Java applets I have written since I started with the language in 1997. The sources for these are available on the downloads page. A ticker board My first applet, it is fairly simple just scrolling a string across from right to left, but using a dot-based font to do so. There are a few parameters to control the size and color. A Web site viewer This applet is more complex. It is utilises the treeView class that you can find in the source in the Zip file on the downloads page. Basically it presents a hierarchical view of a Web site allowing the user to open and close the levels and double click on the files (actually any URL) to action them. A formatted text file scroller Displays the contents of an appropriately formatted text file in different colors, fonts and sizes. The file is made up of sections with each section being scrolled up the window, held, and then cleared in turn.
