In short, the problem is that the standard HTML <APPLET> tag won't work. In order for the Java 2 plug-in to work properly, the <EMBED> tag must be used in Netscape and the <OBJECT> tag must be used in IE. For more information see the HTML section of the plug-in website:

The easiest way to get Java 2 applets to work is to use the old <APPLET> tag and then run your HTML document through Sun's HTML converter, which will automatically put in the complex Javascript code tp figure our which browser is running and what the proper HTML code is. The HTML convertor can be found here:
